300 years of the Royal Artillery Regiment is marked with a visit from the Captain-General's Baton to the Isle of Man.
The Island has a long-standing relationship with the regiment, which is currently celebrating its tercentenary.
A message of greetings to Captain General Queen Elizabeth II was placed inside the Baton for circumnavigation around the Commonwealth.
The journey began in Woolwich on May 1st last year - it'll head to the Island on May 9th, and arrive at its destination at Larkhill on May 26th.
