Chelmsford Legion marks Remembrance Day early (4 photos)

Chelmsford Royal Canadian Legion Branch 553 held its Remembrance Day service on Saturday, in advance of Nov. 11.

Legion members, cadets and dignitaries gathered at the Legion on Errington Avenue and marched to the cenotaph at Cote Park. There, wreaths were laid at the base of the cenotaph, and the names of Legion members who passed away over the last year were read.

Another Remembrance Day ceremony is scheduled for today at the Naughton Community Centre.
