Memorial Day Service 2023
Earlier today Branch 25 of the Royal Canadian Legion (representing the San Francisco Bay Area) held their annual Memorial Day Service, supported by our U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (USNSCC) – Arkansas Division. The service took place at the Royal Canadian Legion plot in the Greenlawn Memorial Park on 1100 El Camino Real in Colma, CA. The service was originally streamed at 11am on Saturday, 27 May 2023, and a recording of that stream (with some editing to address some of the technical issue) is available below.
