They are of different periods in the life of the Regiment,
but all the bases are shown as

I have attached a few photos of the front of my local RSL club (Returned Servicemens league) I don't know if you have heard about them but they are all over the country. Originally for ex-service women and men they now allow none-service people to join in. They have bars, restaurants, gyms, meeting rooms for ex-service organisations and many more facilities including lots of poker machines (fruit machines) which return good profits. The law requires them to spend all the profits on members facilities or as gifts to local charities and youth clubs etc.I hope my ugly gob dosen't spoil the photos but I'm sure my mate Harry can only enhance them.
