Bill Annetts fired from cannon

It’s 20 years since our Colonel, Bill Annetts, left us. His wishes for his ashes to be fired from a cannon in the grounds of Donnington Castle were carried out and the story appeared in many of the daily papers the following day.

We still remember the departed from our Regiment every year – this year we will do so at Shaw House in Newbury on 10 March.
