For many across the United Kingdom, Armed Forces Day is a chance to show your support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community past and present.
The occasion usually sees parades and services take place across Great Britain, and the North East is usually home to some of the biggest and best - with full weekend events dedicated to the cause in certain localities within the regions.
And there's no doubt that many proud residents across the region will be eager to make the most of the up and coming events which will take place over the course of the coming weekend, following a two year lay-off for many due to the global Coronavirus pandemic.
