Armistice at Portland Cenotaph

Shipmates,

15 Members of the Branch gathered at the Cenotaph yesterday for the annual Armistice Parade to commemorate the cessation of hostilities, at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, on the western front of WW1 and to remember all those who fought for freedom from oppression in Europe.

Shipmates Ben Cartwright and Micky Fox paraded the Branch and Ajax Association standards with the recitation being delivered by Shipmate Alex Oswald.  Shipmate Lin McCormack was behind the camera.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
