BEROWRA REMEMBERS
VP & VV Day
Story & photo LCDR Mick Gallagher RANR
I travelled to Martin Place
in Sydney on Saturday 18
August to catch up with
my ex Navy shipmates
for the 2012 Vietnam
Veterans Day service.
Among the veterans from
the three forces lined
up, I felt a bit of a living
time warp, as at age 65,
I was the only one still
in uniform. I also met
up with Army veteran
Rod White, President
Hornsby RSL Sub Branch,
along with other fellow
Hornsby RSL Sub Branch
members.
The following day Sunday 19 Aug, I joined up with fellow Navy
Commander Andrew Tuft of Berowra at the ‘Australia Remembers
Memorial Garden, Berowra Heights for a service to remember
VP Day (Victory in the Pacific) on 02 Sept 1945, and Vietnam
Veterans Day (VV Day) remembering the Battle of Long Tan,
18 Aug 1966.
“Today we are gathered here to honour and remember those
Australians and her Allies that served and died in the Pacific
Theatre of WW2 and Vietnam War,” said Bob Dobson AFSM
(Australian Fire Service Medal) & OAM (Order of Australia) of Mt
Kuring-gai, President Berowra RSL SB.
Almost 1 million citizens out of a population of just 7.4 million
served in the Australian armed forces during WW2 (1939-45)
where more than 39,000 Australians died. Almost 60,000
Australians served in Vietnam, 521 died as a result of the war and
over 3,000 were wounded.
Attending the Berowra service were RSL members from Hornsby,
Berowra ,and Brooklyn (Pres Ken Shadie); politicians Philip
Ruddock Federal MP for Berowra, Matt Kean State MP for Hornsby
and Hornsby Shire Mayor Nick Berman; Berowra Station Officer
Bruce Covey and his fellow fire-fighters from Fire Service NSW
along with the Rural Fire Brigades of Berowra, Muogamurra, and
Berowra Waters.
A thanks to the Berowra RSL SB Youth Band, Director Grant
Hughson (Waitara), for providing the live music, and also to
Deputy Mayor Mick Smart and his Berowra APEX volunteers for
setting up a sausage sizzle and drinks on completion of
the service.
The next commemoration service for 2012 will be
‘Remembrance Day’ on Sun 11 Nov, which marks the
anniversary of the armistice ending WW1 (1914–18).
Lest we forget.
