Hungerford Arcade held their Annual Vintage Military Vehicles Display on Sunday 2nd November 2025 — an inspiring event held in support of the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal. With a proud line-up of restored military vehicles, and historical exhibits provided by Montys Misfits, our local living history group and education team. The day was both a celebration of heritage and a moment of heartfelt remembrance.
Enthusiasts and families alike gathered to admire an impressive array of vehicles spanning decades of military history. From rugged jeeps and armoured carriers to
carefully preserved motorcycles, each display told a story — a living tribute to the service and sacrifice of generations past and present.
Montys Misfits, as ever, produced a wonderful display of vintage weaponry and equipment.
They greatly added to the day with their knowledge that captured the spirit of camaraderie and remembrance. It reminded everyone of the resilience and unity that have always defined our armed forces.
Beyond the engines and uniforms, the purpose of the day remained clear — to support the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal, which continues to provide vital assistance to veterans, serving personnel, and their families. Visitors contributed generously, helping ensure that the legacy of remembrance endures for years to come.
A huge thank you to Gary and June Crook for arranging such a wonderful display of vintage military vehicles, seen here with Alan Pavier in the middle! Everyone enjoyed seeing these incredible machines and learning the stories behind them.
Lest We Forget.
