Royal Canadian Legion Branch 36 celebrated it’s 70th Anniversary last month. From left is June King, who was named Legionnaire of The Year, Comrade Boyd Parsons, who was recognized for 55 years of service with the Legion, and Branch 36 President Calvin Smith. The City of Mount Pearl recognized the Legion ahead of the anniversary at a council meeting back in March. During that meeting, Mayor Dave Aker noted that while we sometimes only see Legionnaires in action on Memorial Day and Remembrance Day, they are involved with events throughout the year. President Calvin Smith said that without the support of the City, the Legion would not survive. He presented the City with a certificate of appreciation. This year also marks the 100th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Legion. Submitted photo
