R.E.M.E. IN WOKINGHAM.
The Last Parade?
Contributed by: Trevor STUBBERFIELD
(52A)
On Saturday 15th
of September 2007, there took place what might be the last occasion when
the R.E.M.E. Garrison could
exercise it’s privilege to march through the centre of Wokingham Town
as Honorary Townsfolk. If this be
the case then a very long relationship between the Corps and the town comes
to a sad end.
The report below appeared
in the Wokingham Times, published on the 19th of September 2007.
It was always believed
that the Corps quick march was entitled Lilliburlero but the reporter has come up with a new
name which, on reflection, may be more appropriate.
