@PeachesTweets So sorry for your loss

[ROCW Bristol & Glos @RetOCBGWing]

@carolvorders @aircadets One of my lasting memories was introducing you both on Clifton Suspension Bridge for ATC75. It was clear that this hero has lost none of his charm. Both of you are great supporters of RAF Air Cadets. It has been a huge privilege to spend time with Johnny at events he supported.

2016 To celebrate our 75th anniversary, 9 hard working ⁦@aircadets⁩ flew back seat with the Red Arrows from ⁦@RAFScampton⁩ to the Royal International Air Tattoo ⁦@airtattoo⁩ Most of our ⁦@RoyalAirForce⁩ pilots started as cadets. There's a special bond ❤️

[Lord-Lt of Bristol @PeachesTweets]

Each year, one of my Lord-Lieutenants Cadets is a RAF Air Cadet. What a pleasure to work with such inspirational young people and involve them on some of the amazing ceremonial, religious and military activities in the county of #Bristol!

Happy 80th anniversary!!

Former 2152 Sqn cadet Sqn Ldr Jez Allinson will today complete 1000 miles running for charity this year in his stormtrooper uniform. Well done Jez. He was on BBC Breakfast this morning. See the link for more info. https://t.co/6b8Z4Qh5RR

[Lord-Lt of Bristol @PeachesTweets]

I am so proud of your daughter.

She demonstrates authentic leadership and pride in the challenge, skills & activities that #Cadets enable. She shows admirable respect for those who serve their country by ensuring its peace.

She is an excellent role model!

Such a moving documentary. Such a brave and determined man who deserves so much credit for his positivity and support for those who fight and suffer this illness alone. If you didn’t see it yesterday, watch it on iPlayer but you will need a box of tissues.

[Rob Burrow CBE @Rob7Burrow]

Thank you for all your lovely comments on the documentary tonight. Thank you @BBCBreakfast for everything. I only hope we don’t lose sight of one thing, there are people out there suffering from MND with no help. I love you all. #MND #hope

[RAF Benson @RAFBenson]

There was no stopping our Running Stormtrooper on #StarWarsDay - he completed a marathon as well as a full day’s work supporting @ResoluteSupport on Operation Toral in Afghanistan.

Well done @StormtrooperRun! The force was definitely with you! 💪

#MayThe4th

[RAF Benson @RAFBenson]

Our @StormtrooperRun Squadron Leader Jez Allinson doesn’t let a deployment to Afghan stop him raising money for @MakeAWishUK and @spreadasmileuk. Today he’ll be attempting to run a marathon in full armour at an altitude of 6000 feet!

#MayTheForthBeWithYou and him!#StarWarsDay
