South Africa Branch

Scribe: Alan Weeks

The 28th November saw the SA Branch have a joint Christmas meeting with the SA RAEME Association. This was also the occasion of their Birthday, being formed on December 1st 1942 and their AGM.

Major Richard Moyses, RAEME President, recited the Ode at the commencement of the meeting, Branch Standards and Colours were on display. 80 members, families and guests attended this first joint meeting and it was agreed that we would make this an annual event; strengthening the bonds of friendship and Esprit de Corps between our organisations.

Mr Frank Stevens was awarded the OBE (Over B…. Eighty)!!!! with rousing cheers from all present, having attained his 80th birthday!!

Lunch was well received and a great time was had by all with plenty of Christmas Cheer.
