Whether they served in the First World War, The Suez Crisis in 1956, or recent conflict zones, such as Iraq or Afganistan, we welcome everyone. The rest of our website supports information about “Operation Musketeer” and EOKA as well as being dedicated to my late father (and my late Mother ‘Gracie’),  Corporal Tony Lowe.
