Postbox Toppers commemorate 80th VE Day Anniversary

Wellington and The Humbers both have post boxes where the tops have been adorned with knitted tributes to VE Day in 1945 which marked the end of the WWII in Europe. This year marks the 80th Anniversary of that day.

The Humbers installation right next to the barracks was crafted by Paula Campbell and featured the flags of Allied nations along with a knitted medal.
