National Servicemen recognised
A CEREMONY to recognise the role of National Servicemen and dedicate plaques to three former soldiers was held at the Rocky Creek Memorial Park on Saturday.
Douglas Stace’s son Lance Stace and daughters Ellie Borgert and Roslyn Hilliery
Organised by the National Servicemen’s Association – Tableland Branch, the event recognised three soldiers who served in Australia’s National Service 1951 to 1959 scheme – Trevor Keeling of Mt Sheridan,
Doug Stace of Carrington, and Boyd McQueen of Atherton and Mossman. Boyd set up the three FNQ branches in 2021.
Relatives of the soldiers placed a poppy on a family plaque manufactured in their honour which will be permanently erected on a Memorial Wall in the Nasho shelter at Rocky Creek War Memorial Park
