We have just had the home coming parade through oakham. I live next to two camps and when they have done a 6 month tour they parade through the high street.
They close the road of and all the shops shut for 30 minutes and everyone goes out on the high street and claps them as they parade by.
It will be on central news later if anyone gets that.
Its quite emotional for a small town |

"The thought of a parade like that gives me goosebumps"
Snap.
The fact so many of them look my kids ages makes even more goosebumps.
It must be a huge relief to their families they are back.
I would be out waving my flag if I lived there.
