1 RWF chelsea pensioners ?

[Roberts 7017]

Rob 17 hier in Minden, I have been asked to find out by the organizing committee of the Brits in Minden ( comprising of members of the RBL Minden, the Great Britain Club Minden, and the R.A.O.B Minden ) with regards our official contribution for the ' Battle of Minden celebrations' in august this year ; Is or are there any ex 1 RWF members residing as Chelsea pensioners and does anybody know thier names??? We are hoping to invite 2 Chlesea pensioners over for the weekend of our official Brits in Minden day and I would personnally like to get the Chelsea pensioners who`s regiments / battalions have a link with the Minden honour i.e. the 23rd Afoot. The entire weekend and all travelling costs are covered by different sponsers, personnally I have sponsered the air flights and hope my / our contribution will be a success. Thanks for any information.
