KILLED IN THE LINE OF DUTY 11 FEBRUARY 1994
This 11th of February 2024 will mark the 30th anniversary of the fire at Southport Honda where Sub-Station Officer Herbie Fennell and Firefighter Noel Watson were killed in the line of duty.
While every year we pause to remember our comrades and the families and friends they left behind, every five years a formal service is held.
The memorial service will be held on the Sunday 11th February at 10:00am in the Cascade Gardens next to Surfers Paradise Fire Station, where there is a memorial stone and picnic area dedicated to their sacrifice.
Herbie and Noel, your memory will forever live on with your fellow firefighters.
