A get together will be held at Flip FLOPS from 10 am we ask those that have medals to wear them and support all Veterans . thank you
Yes all Commonwealth countries show respect on Remembrance Day, once known as Armistices Day, at 11 am 11 November, our USA friends call it Veterans Day, since 1938. I am told a very short service followed by a drink to the Fallen and future peace in this world!
