An Ancient 'British Tradition' is to grant the 'Freedom of the Borough ( or City)' and Brentwood Borough Council voted to grant the Freedom to 124 Squadron Royal Logistics Corps based in Warley . The Mayor read out the Scroll from the saluting base in the High Street ( and it RAINED !! ). The Parade was led by the Band of the Irish Guards . The Standards were carried by the Brentwood Branch, Royal British Legion.
