The Royal Air Force have said that the air base at Lyneham is to close and that repatriation of fallen service men and women would not include the now traditional tribute parade through the town of Wootten Bassett. The people of this Wiltshire town have led the Nation's tribute to those brave heroes and it has been suggested (by my wife, I hasten to add) that as a permanent gesture of thanks, Her Majesty the Queen should, in recognition of their patriotism, and with the townspeople's permission, rename the town, Royal Wootten Bassett .
