Jane Hill and the BBC team (Sadaf Maruf, Ian Atkinson and Tracey Langford) took great care to research and deliver a piece that highlighted the Museum's collections, and showed off just some of the incredible items at our site in Stevenage, including my favourite - the vast uniform store! ๐งฅโ๏ธ

Itโs been fantastic for @nationalarmymuseum.bsky.social to work with BBC News on a package as part of their week-long series to mark 80 years since #VJDay.
