Veterans mark VJ anniversary

WAR VETERANS walked through the streets of Northwich on Sunday to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the day wartime fighting with Japan ended.

The former soldiers set out on the Burma Star Association north west regional VJ parade from Winnington Park Rec before arriving at St Luke's Church for a special service. Barnton Brass Band and Northwich Royal British Legion chairman Don Hordle led the standard-bearing group.

An afternoon of refreshments, and music from a singer and organist concluded the day's events.
