Education" Exhibition: West Indian Soldier @ National Army Museum - Royal Hospital
Rd, London SW3 4HT
Wednesday
6 October 2021 @ 4pm
Group visit - maximum twenty places
available book now - lese@tuc.org.uk
This exhibition, delivered in partnership with the West India Committee and supported by
the National Lottery Heritage Fund,
highlights the little-known military heritage shared between the UK and the
Caribbean. Encompassing more than 300 years of history, it tells the story of
the recruitment and role of West Indian servicemen and women in the British
Army, the experiences of British soldiers and officers in the Caribbean, and
their combined service in various military campaigns.
The
visit is compliant with current COVID restrictions.
(I cannot make 6/10/21 but maybe we could organise a Newham visit to exhibition before it ends?)
