WHAT makes a modern armoured infantry regiment tick will be revealed in Redcar tomorrow.
The Green Howards are holding an Open Day in the Memorial Hall, where they will present show weaponry alongside displays and photographs of soldiers at work and leisure. Members of the regiment will also be available to answer questions.
Capt Steve Mincher, of 122 Army Youth Team, who is in charge of the open day, said: "Holding an event like this gives the Green Howards to chance to show the very wide variety of skills and experiences open to a member of the regiment.
"Every new recruit gets the chance to take their driving test within a year of joining, as well as learning the disciplines and expertise that will help them in the future. They also have unrivalled chances for travel all around the world, and sports to a high level."
