Today marks the start of the 100-day countdown to this year's Armed Forces Day.

The day is a chance for the nation to show its support for the men and women of the armed forces for their outstanding contribution to the country.

This year’s national event is being held in Stirling on Saturday 28 June. Plans are well underway to create a spectacular programme of activities for military personnel, their families, veterans and visitors to make this a truly memorable occasion everybody can enjoy.
