St Marys - Sunday 31st May 2015

In conjunction with the annual National Boer War Day commemorations on Sunday 31st May, we will be conducting a special Service at our Memorial at St Marys RSL. Dress includes medals. Commencing at 11.00am, the Service will commemorate the events of 1899-1902 in South Africa – the first conflict to involve our Nation – a conflict which provided the origins of Australia’s military culture and military history, where around 20,000 Australian men and women volunteered and around 1,000 Australians lost their lives to battle or disease. All in the community are invited to attend and participate in this commemoration. Relatives of those who took part in the Boer War are especially welcome.
