Ahead Of Armed Forces Day, Richards Bay Erupts In Excitement. On Armed Forces Day, South Africans and the Rainbow Nation as a whole honor those who serve in the armed forces. Their work description alone demonstrates that they accepted a challenging position with daily risks.
Naturally, the nation goes all out to congratulate them when they are successful. Right now, there is a distinct sense of excitement in Richards Bay. The fact that their province will be hosting the historic event this year gives the locals every cause to be thrilled.
The annual Military Forces Day, which is observed on June 21st, is a special occasion for South Africans since it allows them to see their armed services in a positive light while participating in a flurry of events, including marches.
Armed Forces Day in South Africa is hosted by a different province each year, Last year was the turn of Mbombela in Mpumalanga to host the event, and it was memorable. This year, the memories continue as South Africans pour out to watch members of the armed forces in their military displays.
President Ramaphosa himself will inaugurate the Armed Forces Day today, Tuesday. For a moment, South Africans have forgotten that at some point they wanted the president out. That’s life for you.
