The Garrison Sergeant Major of London District has warned younger veterans to use their regimental associations or run the risk of losing them altogether.
Warrant Officer Class 1 Andrew 'Vern' Stokes, who earlier this year oversaw the delivery of the King's coronation, made the plea as some veterans told Forces News regimental associations were too formal, and that sometimes the older veteran community could be difficult to engage with.
The GSM issued his warning following a meeting of the Shropshire Branch of the Coldstream Guards Association - his own association - which he said recently faced a "make or break" situation due to a lack of participation in association activities.
