Portland Diamond Anniversary

Portland Diamond Anniversary

What a wonderful 60th Anniversary Dinner. Everyone appears to have had a most memorable evening with good food, company and entertainment. Our guest of honour commented favourably on our dynamic branch and thoroughly enjoyed his evening.
It was our pleasure to welcome around a hundred shipmates including guests from other branches in No 4 Area.
Vice Admiral John McAnally CB LVO presented our branch with the 60 year certificate. In response he was presented with a hand made, engraved whiskey tumbler.
The Vice Chairman introduced the commemorative glass star to mark our diamond anniversary. The star is engraved carrying a tribute to the memory of Norman and Ivy Watson who did so much for the branch.
