Katrina, pictured with her son Hamilton at Anzac Day this year, is encouraging the community to pay their respects this Remembrance Day.
Member for Cootamundra Katrina Hodgkinson is encouraging the community to pay their respects to Australia’s servicemen and women and observe a minute’s silence this Friday, 11 November.
“On Friday we mark the 98th anniversary of the end of the First World War, four years of conflict that devastated so many Australian families,” Katrina said.
“Around 60,000 Australians were killed during that war, many of those on iconic battlefields in Turkey and on the Western Front in France and Belgium.
“At 11am on Friday 11 November, we remember those men and women, and also acknowledge the service of the tens of thousands of Australians who’ve served in conflicts since.
“I encourage everyone to join one of the commemoration services being held across the Cootamundra electorate to pay tribute to those who have died or suffered in their service to our country.”
Katrina will be attending the Remembrance Day service hosted by the Gundagai RSL
Sub-Branch.
