The fourth Rifleman’s Family Gala

Published on 7 September 2026

On Saturday evening, at the home of British motor racing - Silverstone, the fourth Rifleman’s Family Gala took place. Members of the Veteran community gathered to reconnect and recognise the amazing work that some exceptional people carry out on behalf of The Rifleman’s Association.

We were lucky enough to have Veteran Rifleman, Stuart Anderson MP, the Shadow Minister for Defence, present the awards to the following:

Rifleman of the Year – Ian Hughes — Adventurers’ True Grand Slam

Outstanding Support Award – Dave Hill

Resilience Award – Leonie Case

Endurance Award – John Barry

Chen-See Award – Chris Woolly

The regiment would like to thank everyone for making the evening the success it was and to acknowledge the unseen hard work that many members of the 5 pillar of the regiment undertake to help support our serving and veteran troops.
