Remembrance service at Cosford

On Sunday November 12, the museum will hold a service of remembrance, paying respect to those service men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice during their tours of duty.

Visitors who wish to pay their respects and reflect on the sacrifices made by service men and women are invited to join the service, led by the Station Chaplain.

The Cosford Military Wives Choir will perform for visitors on arrival and during the service in the Museum’s Hangar 1 from 10.30am.

RAF Museum Cosford events executive, Nathan Davis said: “The RAF Museum is a fitting location for this poignant occasion and we hope that local residents will choose to join us on Remembrance Sunday so we can remember together.

"I would like to thank the Station Chaplain and the Cosford Military Wives Choir for their involvement in this years’ service. I’m sure visitors will enjoy the special service we have planned as well as the performances from the choir.”

During the service, wreaths will be laid by representatives from RAF Cosford and the Museum in honour of those who have fallen in the line of duty. Following the service visitors are free to explore the Museum at their own leisure.
