We have a full platform of Lodge business to get through including a Notice of Motion for an amendment to our Lodge By-Laws and 6 new joining members to ballot for and welcome into the Lodge. The main agenda item is a presentation from Lt. Cmdr. Kevin Todd and Lt. Cmdr. Pat Drummy who will be taking us through several topics including; Submarine warfare, Conflict sinking, Torpedo trails and the Falklands war, hence the issuing of Part 4 Orders, be prepared.

At our Festive Board, we will be celebrating the 79th anniversary of the D -Day landings and everyone will have a flag to wave and will receive a very special personal present that has been recently repatriated from the Pegasus Bridge area, which by the way had the very first house to be liberated!
