The Ohingaiti Memorial Hall pictured to the right in the photo obviously getting a new coat of paint has a special room where all the soldiers from the District have their photos on the walls.
We used to be able to stand beneath the photos and pick out all the those that were among us .Sadly that is no longer possible so when we have a function we like that they are well remembered and those with their names on the Cenotaph as well.
