What’s On
December
By Sea, Land and Air
Thursday 3rd of December 2026 | 6.30pm
The Queen’s Royal Hussars Museum, Warwick
Why do our Navy, Army and Air Force each have their own versions of the other services? And what might surprise you about their history?
Join us for a fascinating after-hours talk exploring the origins and development of the British Armed Forces. Taking us on a chronological journey, we’ll discover how the Royal Navy, Army and other services were formed, and why each developed elements of the others.
We’ll also explore two major technological advances that transformed modern warfare: air power and armoured fighting vehicles, discovering when and how they were first brought into service.
With fascinating stories, surprising facts and original artefacts, this promises to be an evening full of history and discovery!
The evening includes:
- After-hours entry to the Museum
- A buffet
- Wine and soft drinks
Tickets:
£14 per person for non-Friends of the Museum
