North Beach RSL Sub-Branch held its traditional Remembrance Day Service at the North Beach Memorial, located within the Charles Riley Memorial Reserve and ably supported by Carine’s 58 Army Cadet Unit and children from the local schools.


A large cross section of the community attended, including some younger veterans recently transitioned from the Australian Defence Forces. 


A Fly Over by the RAAF was followed by the unveiling of Plaques on our Wall of Remembrance for those members of our community who have died, and their families and friends chose to honour their service with a plaque.  This year we unveiled 5 plaques to honour:
Vietnam veterans Gordon Douglas, Ray Carroll, Terry Pryer and World War 11 veterans and North Beach fishing friends, Todd Marsden and Alf Orton.


Following the Remembrance Day and the Plaque Unveiling Services, refreshments were served at the North Beach Bowling Club.
