Little known is that there are 2 ANZAC parades held in the UK. The main one in London the other in Leighterton Gloucestershire. A small village but the site of one of the training airfields for the Australian and New Zealand Flying Corps. There are twenty five graves in the village and for 82 years a service and parade has been held on the Sunday closest to ANZAC Day. This year the RBL, Cadets from 4 ATC Sqns and children from the Primary School paraded in the Sunshine to honour those brave men so far from home.
