RSLs and war memorials around the Mornington Peninsula were a place for solemn reflection on Friday, 11 November, as hundreds of people gathered on Remembrance Day to pay their respects to those who died in the line of duty.
Remembrance Day is a memorial day held since the end of World Ward I and commemorates the loss of Australian lives from all wars and conflicts.
On the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month, one minute’s silence is observed and dedicated to those who have died fighting to protect the nation.
