Presented by: Paula Thomson

Join us for a fascinating presentation by Paula Thomson as we recognize those who have served in the lead-up to Remembrance Day.

Paula will begin by sharing her personal background and what inspired her military career before taking you through some of her memorable experiences in service. Hear firsthand stories about Aid to Civil Power, encounters with some unexpected "Odd Critters," and her tours in Bosnia, Haiti, and during the Gulf War, along with other memorable moments from her time in the military.

Whether you have a personal connection to the Armed Forces or simply enjoy hearing real-life stories of service, resilience, and adventure, this promises to be an informative and engaging presentation.
