."At 11am, the Managing Director, Mr H.E. Bettle, and the General Sales Manager, Mr H.A. Cavanaugh, both former US servicemen, come down the steps to the main entrance hall where members of the GMH Sub-Branch of the R.S.S.A.I.L.A. are assembled. The secretary of the Sub-Branch, Russ Carson, hands League wreaths to the Managing Director and to the Sub-Branch President, who place them on brads under the honour-boards which surround the hall. The President then reads the Anzac Requiem, selected each year by the League, then a one minute silence is observed in memory of former employees who died on service. The ceremony is repeated a few minutes later at the Honour Boards in NASCO.
