Menin Gate - The Last Post - 100 years on

On a windy day off from Flying, the 'Flying for Freedom' Team head to Menin Gate for the Last Post. We are there 100 year anniversary nearly to the day.
The Last Post, the traditional final salute to the fallen, is played by the buglers in honour of the memory of the soldiers of the former British Empire and its allies, who died in the Ypres Salient during the First World War. It is the intention of the Last Post Association to maintain this daily act of homage in perpetuity.
Flying for Freedom was originally setup to fly to the South Pole, Antarctica and has since grown further to do far more with Wounded and injured servicemen and women. There is a core team of pilots and also several others who are learning to fly each year through the charity which is link with Help for Heroes and the Endeavour fund. The plan to continue doing more expeditions in Flexwing microlights to build on the teams piloting skills before trying the South Pole trip in the future.
