Default Anzac Day

I would like to wish all our Australian members a belated happy ANZAC Day! Sorry for the confusion re our lost messages from yesterday, but this occasion deserves notice if even a day late.

Some of the finest troops ever to don a uniform and place themselves in harm's way.

We Will Remember Them.

While attending this years Anzac Day Parade in Perth, Western Australia, I saw 6 navy-type cadets(?), male and female in Black uniforms with Maple Leafs and Canada badges. Long way from home... cap bands read CCMRC XXX and RCSCC XXX . Are these cadets?
Yes I took a photo...soon.

Default RCSCC/CCMRC

Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corp or in French-Corps Cadets Marine Royale Canadien is my assumption if the uniforms were dark navy in color

Default Anzac Day at Yass

Geoff,

We sent you some photos, on your email of our vehicles at the march in Yass as I have no idea how to post them on this site. The photos were taken by Mick Newling. Mick helped us restore our blitz in 1995.

Broce Ryan, who was standing with the flag in the carrier, drove these vehicles during the second WW. We specialy drove the carrier in the parade for him. The observier in the carrier is the son of one of dads army mates, who drove 500km to spent the day with father.

regards Max
