Here is the moment the #Exeterbomb was detonated in #Exeter this evening filmed by NPAS 44. Our video is filmed in Infra Red with the white hot mode selected showing heat as white. A massive multi-agency operation with a successful zero casualty outcome ^GMO
With regret it is announced that our HLM Jim Hooper died recently aged 98. In September 1944 he was a member of B Squadron of the GPR and flew in men of the South Staffs. A full obituary will appear in our newsletter.
#OTD in 1944, with the front line in Europe stagnating, high command was horrified by the thought of a return to the Christmas truces of the First World War. Nonetheless, steps were taken to prepare the frontline troops and on 14 December a unusual cargo was loaded into an LST.

Remains of a British soldier found at Bemmel by the Royal Netherlands Army Recovery and Identification Service. He died in 1944 during the aftermath of Operation Market Garden. The service will try to identify the soldier. defensie.nl/actueel/nieuws… defensie.nl/actueel/nieuws…
HMS Hood's bell, recovered from her wreck. The last wish of Ted Briggs as a permanent memorial to his crew mates. Here the bell is surrounded by 1415 poppy petals each one representing a man lost in Hood. We Will remember them. #HMSHA #HMSHood #RemembranceSunday
Very sad to hear that Fred Glover has died. A proud but very humble D-Day Para and lovely fellow. It’s very sad - actually, traumatic - how swiftly that truly incredible generation are slipping away. @almurray @WeHaveWaysPod @TheParachuteReg
It is with regret that we announce the death of our Hon President Colonel John Waddy aged 100 yesterday. In 1944 he was OC B Company of the 156 Parachute Battalion. More pictures on our FB page.
The sad sight of @indiannavy aircraft carrier INS Viraat, formerly the @RoyalNavy's HMS Hermes, flagship of the #FalklandsWar task force, being towed out of Mumbai on her final journey to the scrapyard...
A really nice finish to #JETRide - thank you @RAFBBMF @RAFBBMF #NoOrdinaryJob
The Last Post, during the commemoration at the Oosterbeek War Cemetery. Always impressive, now even more.
Arnhem Casualty Leonard Hooker - So what was he doing in Sept 1944? Leonard Hooker was an Air Mechanic nominally attached to HMS Daedelus a shore based Navy establishment.
The date on this photo is the 26th October 1942. The next day the man at front right, 20 year old Trooper Fred Keates, would be killed. The Sherman named 'Blighty' was knocked out at around 10am by German anti-tank fire. Fred, the loader, was buried next to his tank.
A nice view of @RAFConingsby and the fighters joining, filmed from the rear turret of the #Lancaster. @Seb_Lanc99 @BBMF_Ernie93 @Farrell3Neil @Disco_BBMF @RAFBBMF
Arise, Captain Sir Thomas Moore! Today The Queen conferred the Honour of Knighthood on @captaintommoore at an Investiture at #WindsorCastle.
The Welsh dragon overlooks the area where the 38th (Welsh) Division attacked Mametz Wood between 7 and 14 July 1916. The wood was eventually cleared by 14 July but at a cost of over 4,000 British casualties. Further down you can just about make out @CWGC Flatiron Copse Cemetery

My neighbour is moving out. 5 years ago when she moved in my husband met her before me & told me her name was Liz. For 5 years I've called her Liz, even written it on Xmas cards. Today I found out it's actually Angela. 5 fucking years.

With regret it is announced that our HLM Jim Hooper died recently aged 98. In September 1944 he was a member of B Squadron of the GPR and flew in men of the South Staffs. A full obituary will appear in our newsletter.

This Mark I tank is painted to represent tank number 705, C19 Clan Leslie, as it was on the 15th September 1916. Unfortunately we have no idea of its actual identity. It’s now displayed in The Trench Experience.
Admiral Graf Spee anchored off Spithead for the 1937 Fleet Review. In the background are HMS Resolution and a Renown class battlecruiser, 17 May 1937. #WWII #WW2 #SecondWorldWar
#OTD in 1944, with the front line in Europe stagnating, high command was horrified by the thought of a return to the Christmas truces of the First World War. Nonetheless, steps were taken to prepare the frontline troops and on 14 December a unusual cargo was loaded into an LST.
The FV652 Salamander fire engine was designed for airfield fire-fighting, where high speed and good rough terrain performance were both vital, as airfields are large and contain unpaved areas. The 6-wheel drive and large tyres of the Saracen were ideal.
@RoyalFamily @UKinUSA Regardless of any political feelings about the monarchy, you have to have respect for anyone who manages to genuinely like anyone else for 73 whole years! Congratulations!
