Uniform ready for tomorrow.  Thank you to all those that served and made the ultimate sacrifice.  Thank you to all those that served at all.

 

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.

 

Lest we forget.

I'm in Perth now and I'll be marching with my local volunteer fire brigade to the heart of Kwinana. Couldn't let the side down

My best to all my brothers down under. It was always a pleasure to serve with (mainly with Aussies) them. Some of the best soldiers (and prettiest nurses) around. Enjoy your day. o7

Dad loves this.  I think it was an beginning of an awakening for the public with relation to Vietnam vets in Australia.

To all the fallen and wounded warriors, past and present.......our government and people may have treated

us Vietnam vets like a piece of chit but our brotherhood of the homeless and the neglected shall never be

forgotten.  

 

Hooroo to my brothers in arms.  May you all rest in peace.  Most respectfully -- Jake

Must have missed you in Kwinana today,Fred. Just kidding ! My nearest service was in Rockingham Beach

and I didn't get there either. Had to go to work. :th_unfair:    :cheersty:

Spent many a year at Rocky Classic Dry.  Was on submarines based at Garden Island.  Many fond memories of the area including running the two-up on ANZAC days at the local RSL.  :cheersty:
