THE X Factor boy band Union J took a break from a busy tour to show their support for Saturday’s Armed Forces Day.

The 2012 talent show finalists visited RAF Northolt in Ruislip last week to film a video for the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Picnic.

Dressed in combat trousers and Poppy Appeal T-shirts, the band urged people up and down the country to get together for a picnic to raise money for welfare work benefiting service people and their families.
