Royal Armoured Corps 80
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the Royal Armoured Corps (RAC) and provides the opportunity to celebrate 80 years of the Corps by bringing together its current soldiers and its veterans and to raise its profile by demonstrating the RAC’s various capabilities and equipment.
RAC 80 will include the opening of the RAC 80 exhibition ‘Long after the Battle’, featuring RAC World War 2 veterans, a mounted drive-past of historic and current armoured vehicles and a mounted demonstration of current capabilities. Concurrently, RAC regiments will be engaging with the wider public in their respective recruiting areas.
