Your chance to meet veterans of this legendary Cold War British unit and ask questions.
BRIXMIS toured East Germany in hazardous three-man, vehicle-borne patrols collecting intelligence on the Warsaw Pact forces.
They lived in the field and did not carry weapons while Soviet and East German troops were nearly always armed, and had orders that permitted them to use whatever force necessary, including opening fire, to protect the property they were guarding.
This event is hosted by the West Pennines branch of the Military Vehicle Trust and moderated by Ian Sanders from the Cold War Conversations Podcast.
Free entry, but donations to military charities will be welcome on the day.
