RAF Cottesmore farewell march Oakham 31st March 2011

the remaining two flights that are based at RAF Cottesmore will march through Oakham for a final farewell.

After a church service At All Saints Church Oakham at 1.30pm

Before this the flights will be marching through the village of Cottesmore with a band.

Cllr Alf Dewis has complained this is a low key affair, requesting more of a party. What is there tour party about, the closure of RAF Cottesmore has cost hundreds of jobs and lost costomers for local shops.

The Town Clerk has highlighted others issues VIP's will have to walk to the seats outside the museum. I am sorry if the flights are able to do all the marching a few fat VIP's can walk a less than a mile up the road before they go in to the VIP reception.
