Applications cut off date is 8 June 2020. This is the date that Associations have to send their applications in to the RBL, so apply to the Association well before that.

Therefore act now to avoid disappointment. Fully paid up CA members (Green Berets) will have priority. Associate Members who are related to Commandos can also apply. Should there then be any places left, non members who have applied will be considered. It is recommended that veterans who are non members apply to join the CA  to guarantee consideration. 

The following details are required by David Justice (see contact details above):

Title; first name; surname, date of birth; nationality; country of birth; full postal address; email (optional); contact phone number; service number (if appropriate); CA membership number.

Below is the normal itinerary for those attending and taking part. 
09:00: Royal British Legion (RBL) detachments form up on Horse Guards Parade and in Whitehall
10:00: All detachments march out from Wellington Barracks
11:00: Two minutes silence marked by the firing of guns from Kings Troop, on Horse Guards Parade. Cenotaph Service commences
11:25: Cenotaph Service concludes and RBL detachments disperse past the Cenotaph.

Veterans should obtain the itinerary from the London Branch on application.

No passes or tickets are required by members of the public, who can watch the ceremony from the pavements along Whitehall and Parliament Street.
