A great attendance
of Veterans & members of the public were present
at the Memorial Park Burleigh Heads for the 2009 Remembrance
Day service. The Sub-Branch field of crosses was placed
at the cenotaph which named every Burleigh Heads RSL
member that had passed away since 1939 when the Sub-Branch
was formed.
This year as it was very warm day and it was decided
that it was not prudent to have the troops fall in on
parade and they were allowed to remain under cover and
in the shade of the rubber tree. The cadets from 133
Army cadet Unit under the leadership of 2Lt Peter Fleming
mounted a catafalque guard and remain for the full 40
minute service, they were a credit to many of the youth
of today! Thanks Cadets.
