Exercising their Freedom ...

 We'd seen a notice whilst walking in Wallingford yesterday, that the roads into and out of town would be closed later this afternoon and there would be marching to drums and a band ...

Royal Air Force (RAF) Benson was given the Freedom to march in Wallingford in 1957 and yesterday two flights of 52 personnel from the helicopter base exercised that right, together with the RAF's Central Band, for the first time since 2009.
 Mustering at 3:45
 RAF Regiment too
 Nearly ready now ...
 ... and here they come ...
... marching over the medieval Wallingford Bridge
Turn on your sound!
