Rememberance

We spoke with Veterans Minister, Al Carns, ahead of #remembranceday. We know for our Members supporting a loved one with service attributable injuries, this can be a difficult few weeks. Al provided us with this quote:

"Remembrance is a special time to pay tribute to all those people who serve, have served and importantly those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice. Also dedicate time to remember those left behind, the families, the children and the partners. They are often the island we sail from and hope to one day return to. They are the anchor that holds us steady against the storm and the compass that keep us on the right path. Every time the bugle sounds, I try to remember each incident and each individual I have unfortunately seen taken from us. It’s my tribute and my honour to spend some time to remember them and the sacrifice they made for us. To you and all the carers who help those affected by conflict, I salute you. Your dedication, courage and sense of service means so much to so many."
