Somers CF, and a lament
was played by piper
CQMS David Usher (Ord
Sch), and then the Min-
ister laid a wreath along
with the three repre-
sentative associations
to honour our deceased
servicemen and women.
The Minister finished
by paying tribute to the
86 members of the De-
fence Forces who died on
operations at home and

their country, "They paid
the ultimate price in the
cause of peace".
The day was finished
off with light refresh-
ments and displays of
current weapons and ve-
hicles and also a display
of historical vehicles and
weapons brought in by
the Irish Military Vehicle
Group (IMVG).
