Paying their respects. 161807

MORE than 100 people attended the Ocean Grove Barwon Heads RSL Sub-branch Remembrance Day service at Ocean Grove Park on 11 November.
People paid their respects to our fallen soldiers and a minute’s silence was observed at 11am.
Brigadier David Gilroy addressed the crowd as guest speaker and Bellarine Secondary College Ocean Grove campus co-captain Aldo Naulty delivered the In Flanders Field and the Answer to Flanders Field.
Wreaths were laid in honour of the fallen and sub-branch padre Phillip Christian gave a prayer.
