Class of 21 minus a few with positive Covid tests. Immense congratulations to all. 🎓🎉👏 Successfully completing your degrees amid a pandemic speaks volumes about your grit!

First year students visited Framlingham Castle today as part of the Tudors & Stuarts module. So good to have trips back!

Back in the Salient for the first time since the pandemic struck. Very privileged to be playing a small role in the re-burial of LCpl Robert Cook of the Essex Regt today. The Regiment is represented by the Chaplain & Burial Party from C (Essex) Coy, 1st Bn, The Royal Anglian Regt

#OTD 1941 severe gales over the past week have taken a heavy toll of British defensive minefields off the East Coast; over 110 of our floating mines are located and sunk as the weather eases whilst dozens are rendered safe after having washed ashore on beaches #Sweepers80

A British F-35B aircraft crashed earlier today into the Mediterranean sea. The pilot ejected successfully in their Martin-Baker US16E Ejection Seat and safely returned to the Royal Navy aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth.

Yet another reason to join our highly rated BA (Hons.) History course in Sept 2022 as University of Suffolk announces £1000 Ipswich Award for new entrants. See if you qualify! 👍😎🎓 uos.ac.uk/content/ipswic…

Just reminiscing on my days as a Red Army tank rider!

Second day in the archives of ArmyFlyingMuseum at Middle Wallop working on Ops Normal - AAC History and distracted by old newspaper ads!

So much of what we considered to be recent events, is actually our history. This is a great example of the value of the Oral History project, and Ops Normal. Don't leave it too late to contribute to both/either.

There is still just time to book for the last of our Suffolk at War talks with Dr John Greenacre, which takes place tomorrow. You can either join us in person at The Hold, or watch online: ticketsource.co.uk/suffolk-archiv… Dr John Greenacre History at Suffolk @SuffolkLibrary (Image: K997/107/15)

First-year students finished term with a Georgians Christmas Quiz today. Whether your festivities bring you gambols in the servants' hall or something more socially distanced we wish you all a very restive and enjoyable break! 🎄

Indeed the good people of Ipswich rioted in defence of Christmas in 1647. Something to contemplate should The Beastie Boys spirited ode to celebratory rights feature on your xmas playlist...😜🎄🕺
