It's shaping up to be a fantastic day at stadiummk on Saturday as MK Dons host their first ever Armed Forces Day supporting Help for Heroes.
With Paul Ince's side set to face Yeovil Town in Coca-Cola League 1, the Dons will use the game as a celebration of our nations Armed Forces and give supporters the chance to show their appreciation for both ex and existing servicemen on the day.

The event is part of Dons midfielder Peter Leven's season-long efforts to raise money for Help for Heroes - the Football League's official charity partner for the 2009/10 season - with all proceeds generated on the day going towards Peter's running total at www.justgiving.com/peter-leven
Having vowed to donate £5.00 for every goal the Dons score during the current campaign, Peter's challenge has gone from strength to strength in recent weeks with team-mates, fellow pros, sponsors and supporters all offering their backing via his fundraising website.
To date, the Glasgow-born midfielder has raised over £2,000 through his efforts and, with Betfair set to double whatever can be totalled over the course of the campaign, it looks set to be a huge contribution to a worthy cause.

But as well as offering supporters the chance to donate in support of Peter's Help for Heroes challenge, Saturday's game will also be a celebration not to be missed, with a strong contingent from the region's military organisations set to attend.
Already confirmed for the afternoon's half-time parade are:
7th Rifles
Buckinghamshire ACF (The Rifles) - 1COY
1 Signal Squadron (V)
MOD Chicksands
RAF Halton
Sea Cadets TSI (Whaddon)
Air Training Corps
Parachute Regiment Association
Representatives from the Royal British Legion - Bletchley, Leighton Buzzard, Winslow branches.
In addition to bucket collections around the ground, the Dons squad will all be sporting Help for Heroes t-shirts and wristbands during the warm-up, which will be personalised, signed and auctioned off to supporters, with all proceeds generated going towards Peter's efforts. Representatives from Yeovil are also expected to take part in the half-time parade.
