Medals were earlier presented to the soldiers

The soldiers from Robertson barracks at Swanton Morley, in Norfolk, returned to the UK last month.

People gathered in Dereham on Monday morning as 140 soldiers marched along the High Street.

Each soldier will be given a bottle of Breckland Hero beer, brewed especially for the occasion.

The soldiers were deployed to Helmand Province where they were involved in fighting with the Taleban.
