Reminder – ANZAC Day Service & Reception

Join the Branch 25 of the Royal Canadian Legion at the annual ANZAC Day organized by the Australian American Chamber of Commerce San Francisco and New Zealand American Association of San Francisco.  While they wouldn’t join Canada for another 35 years, the Royal Newfoundland Regiment landed in Gallipoli in September 1915 and would fight alongside their ANZAC comrades until the Allied withdrawal in January 1916 (for more information on Newfoundland’s involvement, visit https://www.veterans.gc.ca/eng/remembrance/classroom/gallipoli ).  Each year the Royal Canadian Legion joins with our Aussie and Kiwi colleagues to commemorate this engagement.

Sunday, April 23
2:00pm – 5:00pm PDT
