On Remembrance Day, Australia stops to remember the sacrifice of all our brave soldiers and veterans in war and to acknowledge the freedoms for which they fought. The Epping RSL Sub-branch held their service as they have done every year for over 100 years at Boronia Park Epping. I want to recognise and pay tribute to the RSL Sub Branch Committee’s continuous commitment to organising Anzac Day and Remembrance Day Services and supporting veterans in our community. I want to thank John Curdie OAM, President of the Epping RSL Sub Branch, alongside Brian Swan and others for their service to our country and the Epping Community at large. It was also encouraging that students from schools throughout the Epping electorate – the next generation of Australians, paid tribute to the generations past who fought and died so that they might live in a country blessed with liberty, democracy and the rule of law. It is fitting that we reflect upon what our freedoms cost and remember those who paid the ultimate price especially on this day, Remembrance Day. Lest we forget.
