The British Legion in 1965

This account was contributed by Mr Good, the Honorary Secretary.

We are a small branch of 25 members with Mr Abels from Upper Highfield Farm as President, Lt Colonel Dunlop from Pitch Place as Chairman, and Mr Good from Streetfield as Secretary. Monthly meetings are held on every third Tuesday in the Three Horse Shoes. We have a Service Committee which meets when required to deal with any case that has been brought to notice.

We have a representative on the Village Hall Committee and a Poppy Day Organiser who arranges the sale of Poppies etc. A representative and delegate attend County Conference.

A Remembrance Day Service is held which members attend with Standard.

A Branch Dinner was held in March of this year when 26 members and friends had an enjoyable evening.

Thursley won the County Chairman’s Cup for 1965 which is presented by the Chairman to the Branch he selects for his special commendation.
