Lest we Forget







ANZAC Day and so many memorable moments both on TV and here in Gympie. Today Alan was involved in the March and the Catalfalque Party. In these photos you can see him marching with the Light Horse in the parade and then in Memorial Park afterwards as part of the Catalfalque Party. Memorial Park was created by the people of Gympie as a dedication to the men who lost their lives in World War 1 and it is full of Jacarandas and rose gardens. Here you can see the Rotunda, used today for its original purpose as a Bandstand, the piper in the background and Alan standing to attention. The top image is a photo one of the Memorial plaques from Memorial Lane. There are a series of these in this Lane (which joins the park to the main street), all brilliant, this one is dedicated to WW2 and you can see a Corvette in the picture.
