Young and old remember

By Glenise Dreaver

That special promise “Lest We Forget” was made real at Johnsonville’s Anzac Day Parade and Service on Tuesday morning.

Hundreds of Cubs and Scouts, Pippins, Brownies and Guides from the local area marched behind two youthful pipers. They were joined by their leaders, by Veterans and by Armed Services representatives as they moved down Johnsonville Road to the 10am service at The Salvation Army Johnsonville. Continued on page 2.

Ray Marshall, Korean, Malayan and Vietnam war veteran, and former president of the Johnsonville branch of the RSA, wore his war medals, along with his father’s World War I medals, on Tuesday’s local Anzac Day parade. Ray was accompanied by Rayleen Snowdon, whose late husband was one of his war comrades. Photo: Glenise Dreaver.
