Today at 1200hrs RNA members along with a host of other associations attended the unvailing of the first Vetrans Memorial at Knightswood Cross, Glasgow. The memorial is dedicated to The Royal Navy, The Army, The Royal Air Force and the Merchant Navy.
It was a glorious day with the sun shining brightly upon the service which was attended by the Lord Provost, The Right Honouable Councillor Bob Winter and the service was carred out by the Revd, Dr Laurence Whitley, Minister, Glasgow Cathedral, and Captain of Clyde (Faslane)J Tar. There was a scripture reading from Col (rtd) RL Steele TD DL.
After the service and dedication was concluded we all retired to the Lincoln Inn on Great Western Road for refreshments and a buffet and to catch up with old friends for a good chat and a sing song where we were entertained by the DJ provided. He invited the veterans up to do a turn on the stage which S/m Katrina did with the spoons she aquired from the bar. All in all a very good day with a well attended service.
