Over 90 Mornington Islanders gathered at the Mornington Shire Councilflag pole to pay respects to those fallen.
“I would like to thank the traditional owners past and present for the opportunity to be here today to take part in a gathering to remember and honour the Lardil, Kaiadilt, Yangkal and Gangalidda people as well as non – indigenous Australian men and women all across Australia who have served in defence of this country,” said CEO Mr Frank Mills.

The very well supported event (in one of Australia.coms most remote regions), provided a time to honour all those countrymen and women who served with pride and humility in the armed forces, and especially those who made the supreme sacrifice.
Council said the symbolism of this day serves to highlight the role played by both ‪#‎indigenous‬ and non-indigenous ‪#‎Australians‬ in defence of this great country.
Thank you to all for attending, MSC.
