Personal Stories
PAYNEHAM RSL
Resent membership records found at the Payneham RSL-Sub Branch indicate that Colin was a member. Card indicated a membership period 1954 - 1972.
This card shows that Colin was a member of the Payneham RSL but over time cards have been lost/not accurately kept, so the period displayed may be shorter than the actual membership given.
