Soke Military Society

Home

The Soke Military Society has been in existence since the mid 1960’s and is still going strong, with many members in and around the city of Peterborough, Cambridgeshire. The membership is open to any person of any age, if you have an interest in “things military,” then there is something here for you.

Members range from collectors of military items such as uniforms, badges and equipment, to those with an interest in documents and books. Others are interested in military modeling and of course, there are those who do not collect anything, but are interested in the various aspects of military history and just like to come along to our monthly meetings to hear the speaker for that evening.     

In addition to the above, we have a monthly Newsletter which is distributed by post and email depending on your preference, which contains interesting articles and club news. The Society meets on the second Wednesday of every month, at 7:30 until about 9:30 in the Lecture Room of the City Museum, Priestgate, Peterborough. Membership is priced at £6.00 per year, and 50p on the night (£1.50 on the night for non members). Every year we hold a two-day exhibition at the museum which allows our members to put on display some of the huge array of items they have in their collections. The pictures at the

top of this page were taken at our 2006 exhibition. For more information or to become a member, contact the Secretary: email     

Below is a picture taken by the Evening Telegraph photographer at the 2007 Exhibition showing a few of the ‘usual suspects’. It is produced here just in case you didn’t see it. From left to right:
