Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what plans his Department has to support VE day celebrations in local communities.
The Ministry of Defence will be supporting a number of regional events through the provision of Service personnel, Armed Forces' bands and aircraft for flypasts. Service personnel will be present in local parades and processions across the UK and the Channel Islands. The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight are planning to carry out flypasts over at least 90 events on Friday 8 May 2020 and a further 70 during the weekend of 9-10 May 2020.
