Police attend ceremony to mark end of Second World War
PCSO 5133 Larmour attended a flag-raising ceremony outside Penrith Old Town Hall to mark the anniversary of Victory over Japan and the end of the Second World War.
He met with a group of local people who helped support the event, coming together to remember the sacrifices made by so many during the conflict.
The flag was raised in a short, respectful ceremony, serving as a reminder of the importance of honouring those who served and those who lost their lives.
The day is a time to remember those who served in the Far East campaign and the many who lost their lives before peace was finally declared in August 1945. It also honours the civilians who endured hardship at home and abroad.
