Couldn't help but notice you mentioning Warminster, Pete. Was there for a bit when I was in the Army with Land Warfare Centre Battle group. I used to be stationed on top of the hill at Harman lines. Great times!

Yes, Pete. Sorry for late reply. I took part one year back in 2005. My squadron (A Squadron 1RTR) was the demonstration squadron back then. We practically lived on the plain. Can't remember enjoying it that much then but I remember it fondly now, haha. I remember Imber village and Cope hill down very well also.
