Three brothers from Staffordshire & West Midlands ACF parade as Guard of Honour
Three brothers Usama (12), Hamza (18) and Abbas Ibrahiam (17) paraded as part of a tri service cadet guard of honour outside the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery in Hanley on the 19th Feb to welcome The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall during a Royal visit to the City which was to mark the centenary of the city's federation.
The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall took time to chat with the cadets and Officers before viewing The Staffordshire Hoard treasure as part of a whistle-stop tour of the city.
The brothers said they joined different services so they would be treated as individuals rather than someone following in the others footsteps, and all felt very proud to represent their service on the day.
