ANZAC DAY 2024
Another year has passed. Thanks to Dave Lardner, Tim Pharo and David Allen we have again some great Photos.
Around 13 marched under the NSW RAN Corvettes Association banner on a beautiful clear sunny day with the mercury in the early twenties.Holding the banner was Tim Pharo (late father ex HMAS Glenelg), Dave Lardner (late father ex HMAS Bunbury and Bundaberg) with lead national flag carried by David Allen (late father ex HMAS Glenelg and former NSW Corvette Association President).
Don Amery (ex HMAS Launceston) was assisted by his daughter Adele. He thoroughly enjoyed the day out on this special occasion.
Max Marvin (ex HMAS Wollongong) also attended the march but was in the comfort of a taxi.

ANZAC DAY 2025
Many thanks to Dave, Tim, David and other helpers for creating yet another memory of Anzac Day.
ANZAC DAY SYDNEY 2026
Under a cerulean sky with no wind and a comfortable temperature, 13 Corvette descendants assembled to once again carry the banner of the NSW Corvettes.
Unfortunately, there was no veteran with us this year for the first time. According to figures obtained from DVA, the average age of a WW2 veteran is now 100.
We were all conscious on the day how important it is to maintain the chapter of our history.
At the end of the march in Hyde Park, we all gathered to have a cup of tea, Anzac biscuit and to share stories of the past 12 months.
Lest We Forget. By Dave Lardner
