The dates and locations are:
Wednesday 25 May 2011, National War Memorial, Wellington
Friday 27 May, Auckland War Memorial Museum, Auckland.
We do not know timings, nor do we know whether there will be other activities.
However, you might like to plan around:
A late morning wreath laying in Wellington, followed by a lunch for invited Veterans
A mid afternnon wreath laying in Auckland followed by a social function in the Museum for invited Veterans
It is hoped, and I stress hoped, that the Minister may also personally present Citations at these activities, to eligible Veterans who are unable to attend the Linton Parade 26 May.
We will keep you informed of any chages or confirmed timings as soon as we can.
