East Sussex celebrates first 21 years
Members of the Eastbourne-based East Sussex Sovereign Harbour Unit (ESSHU) celebrated the MVS’s 21st birthday during their Tuesday meeting at Sovereign Harbour on 31st March.
HoU Keith Johnson explains, “Our East Sussex Sovereign Harbour Unit still has several founder members and we decided to mark the occasion with a promotions ceremony and the cutting of a special cake.”
He added, “I’m glad to say many of our members have advanced through our training programme this year, though not all could be present to receive their new insignia.”
One of the Unit’s founding members, Les Quilty, has been the main organiser of the 21st celebration which has included sending out 21st birthday cards to past members of the MVS.
The cards were designed by another founder member Geoff Frost.
