FIRST Bus in West Yorkshire is providing free travel to serving personnel, cadets and veterans travelling to an organised event this weekend for Armed Forces Day.
All people have to do to travel free with First Bus is wear their uniform or medals, show a valid ID card or be wearing the MOD veterans' badge.
First Bus staff who have previously served in the forces are also being encouraged to wear associated military dress while driving in service.
First Bus has strong links to the armed forces with a number of employees at its depots having served in the military.
Among them is Simon Scott, a performance supervisor at the Bradford depot.
He joined up at the age of 17 and spent 10 years in the Royal Engineers including a tour of duty in Iraq and a posting to Germany.
Simon said: "I gained a wealth of skills and talents which I use today in my professional working life but also in my personal life.
"I made a great many lifetime friends.
"I am proud to have served my country and Armed Forces Day means a lot to myself and others that swore to protect this nation of ours."
Armed Forces Day is taking place on Saturday.
