🇬🇧 Ambassador Kathy Leach at her first Lielā Talka, in great company 🌿

🇬🇧 Ambassador Kathy Leach was delighted to host Col Antoņina Bļodone at the Residence this morning.

A trailblazing senior officer in Latvijas armija, Col Bļodone made history as the first woman to lead Latvia’s Independence Day parade, having begun her career when women in uniform were still very much the exception.
