Ballymoney Council honours Her Majesty’s Armed Forces
The Mayor laid a wreath on behalf of the Citizens of the Borough, after the Chairman of the Royal British Legion, Mr Mark McLaughlin, delivered the exhortation “They shall grow not old….” followed by two minutes silence after which the Mayor’s Chaplain offered prayer.
Speaking after Mayor said: “During armed forces day the whole nation has an opportunity to show its appreciation for the contribution made by all those who serve or have served in Her Majesty’s Armed Forces. This special day reflects the wider Armed Forces family of serving personnel (both regular and reserve), veterans and the cadet forces. The strapline for the day “Honouring Britain’s Armed Forces, past, present and future” is most appropriate and why we gather here.
