Inspired by some entries in BTP related Facebook groups, we thought it might be a good idea to collect any anecdotes members might have about meeting the Queen or other incidents related to the Royal Family whilst on duty. These could be humorous, but it would also be good to capture the more serious side as well, planning, the cordons, working with other forces, etc. All these would be good to have in the archives, and we can put a selection on the website. Anything from the sixties or even the fifties would be great.
Of course, if you have something more substantial to relate, we always welcome the submission of articles for the website or our publications – History Lines or the Year Book.
You can make your submissions in the comments below, or use the Contact form, or you can add to the post on our Facebook page.
Thanks to Colin Sinclair for the suggestion.
