Anzac Day is commemorated
The commemoration remembered all the Allied soldiers who fought so bravely during the Gallipoli campaign of the First World War.
Seventy visitors attended the event, which began with a short interdenominational service conducted by Rev Dr Isaac Thompson from Cookstown Presbyterian Church, a former TA Chaplain. Regimental standards were paraded and wreaths laid during the Act of Remembrance. Bugler Crangle, dressed in First World War uniform, sounded the Last Post and Reveille and a piper from the Royal Irish Regiment also performed at the service.
After the Service Mr Eddie Lendrum gave an illustrated presentation on the Irish contribution to the Gallipoli campaign.
