COMMANDER-in-Chief of Guyana’s Armed Forces President Donald Ramotar, First Lady Deolatchmee Ramotar, Government Ministers and other top officials were among thousands of people who attended a gala display of military skills and musical prowess put on at the Guyana Defence Force’s (GDF) Ground, Camp Ayanganna on Sunday afternoon.

Attendees were thrilled as the Joint Services showcased their individual musical skills, in various formations, in addition to giving musical renditions courtesy of their choirs.
One of the highlights was a parachute jumping display, which saw members of the GDF special- forces conducting freefalls from a Sky-van aircraft then landing at the Base Camp Ayanganna Ground at Thomas Lands.
The ‘Military Tattoo’ was part of the GDF’s 49th Anniversary activities. This year’s celebration is being held under the theme, ‘Towards greater operation readiness for national defence and security’.
