Red poppies were painted on the grass at RAF Marham yesterday ahead of Remembrance Commemorations. Local firm CGM Group, based in Downham Market, provide the gardening maintenance for the housing area outside of the Station, and offered to paint the poppies for Amey. Amey provides a housing maintenance service for all the Service Families housing at RAF Marham and other locations within the Central and North regions.
The poppy outlines were painted by a remote controlled robot before the inside was completed by hand. On Station the poppy was located next to the Heritage Wall and Tornado Gate Guardian and the one outside the Station was located on the corner of the grass near to the houses.
Station personnel gathered behind the painted poppy, outside Station Headquarters for a short Remembrance service today.
‘At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them’
