Armed Forces Day to be marked tomorrow

Past and present members of the Armed Forces will turn out in force tomorrow to mark Armed Forces Day.

They will march from Regent Street, along Douglas Promenade, to the Villa Marina before taking part in a service of thanksgiving.

The day celebrates the service given by many Manx men and women through the two world wars and in more recent conflicts.

This year, the event has greater significance as the Island marks the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War.
