As well as The Unknown Warrior itself at The NEC, there is the launch of a new painting by Colin Wright. Both original paintings by Colin will be on display and he will be present, at least on the Saturday.
The will be a collection of at least 20 original Patriot name plates on display, (not all of them on the Sunday.)
