AAC dominates the match against AMS in the Woolwich cup, securing an early lead with goals from Thapa and Parkinson. AMS struggles in the second half against AAC's strong defense. Hilliyer and Bowles-Bellamy seal the victory with additional goals. Great night for the Air Corps.
Some members of our regiment took part in the remembrance banner parade at @ChelseaFC Vs @ManCity at the weekend consisting of 32 personnel from across the Armed Forces.
