CMAC ANZAC Day Commemoration: Tuesday 25 April 2017
This ANZAC day, CMAC members reflected back into history to remember the brave men and women who served and made the ultimate sacrifice from all eras of war. The theme for the day was anything military, either flying or static.
Under soggy skies, the club cooked up a warming bacon-and-egg breakfast for about a dozen hardy members to kick the day off. Gary Sweet had volunteered to provide this breakfast.
