THE MINISTER OF VETERANS AFFAIRS - RSA Napier
Transcript of THE MINISTER OF VETERANS AFFAIRS - RSA Napier
THE MINISTER OF VETERANS AFFAIRS:
When addressing the delegates at the 2002 National Conference the Honourable
Mark Burton stated quite clearly and I quote “As a point of clarification, full pension
coverage means that veterans do not have to prove that a disability is the result of
service – only that it may have been”.
WHO MAY APPLY FOR A WAR DISABLEMENT PENSION?
Every ex- Service Personnel including Merchant Seamen who have served
overseas in a War or an Emergency have a right to apply for a Disablement
Pension in accordance with the War Pension Act 1954. This includes Service and
Home Service Personnel who during the 2nd World War served in New Zealand.
Those Personnel who were conscripted into the CMT prior to 31st March 1974 are
also included.

Presidents Report In almost a blink of an eye, the fiscal year came and went, I suspect the busier we are the more time flies by – so the rumour goes. Challenges at RNZRSA have certainly impacted on my time with several extraordinary meetings being held in Wellington. On occasion I have been accused as the ‘absent President’ of the Napier RSA and while I attach the following information of some of the duties I fulfill over and the above the Presidency of the Napier RSA, this is not stated to mitigate my absence from the Club, it is to merely share with you some of my other duties that put pressure on my time. Firstly I am in the Club almost 6 mornings out of the week and I currently serve as;
President of the Napier RSA
President East Coast, Wairarapa and Hawkes Bay Districts
Member of the National Executive Council in Wellington
Chairperson of the RNZRSA Support Service Committee - Wellington
War Pensions – Napier RSA
ANZAC/Poppy Day and Field of Remembrance Committee Ex Officio
RNZRSA/ANZ Speech Competition co-ordinator
Cancer Support Group
28th Maori Battalion Trust
Kimberley Parents League
Justice of the Peace I reiterate that the above is not stated to mitigate my absence from the Club, nor solicit sympathy or accolades, this is done to simply put into perspective why I am not in the Club most afternoons. I would also point out that I receive emails to my cell phone and home computer which I respond to several times a day, so even if I am not here I am very well connected to what is going on in the Club at all times. Over the last two years RNZRSA managed (or mismanaged depending on your point of view) to over spend just shy of $700,000 on rebranding the organization and restructuring Head Office. Unfortunately this was done without the knowledge of most of the NEC Members until about a month prior to the National Conference – which I am sure you will agree has given cause for a lot of angst and embarrassment to most of the National Executive Committee. Will things come right? Yes, the Independent Task Force appointed by the RNZRSA are currently examining what went wrong and will address the RNZSA National Conference with their recommendations towards a possible solution, which of course has to be accepted by the member clubs. Subject to that approval or an alternative agreeable to the RSA Membership the National Office should get back on a solid footing that will allow them to better engage with a broader base of the membership including grass roots RSA’s that are struggling in the tough economic climate.

Napier RSA Redevelopment Project – Update for members We felt that it was timely to provide an update on the ‘proposed’ redevelopment of the Napier RSA. Firstly we really must note and express our appreciation, on your behalf, to a large number of firms and individual persons who have been so very generous with their advice and ideas over the past 18 months as we have thoroughly investigated and researched what has variously been described as a defining project for Napier City. The project - A new 3000 square metre purpose built safe, welcoming inner city community Club whose membership is open to all with a range of customer related facilities for guests and visitors. A Club car park (under or over the club), a public restaurant, and conference facility. The size (3000 sq m) is about double the size of the present club. And two floors of apartments. The apartments, of course, were but a means to an end. That is we need a new club facility to accommodate and provide ongoing high level of services to our growing membership, and the public, now and into the future. A new club facility would cost around $8/$9 million with car parking, and, as we don’t have the equity or cash reserves to fund the new club facility the sale of apartments seemed to be ‘A’ way to do it. Not the only way by any means, but ‘A’ way. We’ve looked at ‘other’ ways too. This project has also been described as visionary, ambitious, forward thinking, bold and has attracted significant positive comment, from professional persons in the development field, as to the manner in which the project has been progressed. Yet along with the positives, I must say, there has also been a degree of negativity, which seems to attract nay sayers who cannot appreciate and envision what we want for you, our members, now and 25/30 years out. Yet, their views (the nay sayers) is to be welcomed to ensure that we keep our feet on the ground and do the important spade work necessary in a major project of the sort we envision. Professional advice now to hand, from several soundly based sources, clearly indicates that the Napier inner city apartment market now, and probably for the next 2 or 3 years, would not support the project as we have seen it. Hence the project should now ‘lie on the table.’ Investigations should continue and ongoing data sought so that whole purpose of the redevelopment (a new club for members) remains ‘live,’ so as to be able to bring a soundly based proposal to you, our members, based on changed financial or market conditions. Thank you to all, for your forbearance and for a good deal of valued advice and counsel, it has been appreciated. Sincerely Ron Rowe JP Chairman – Redevelopment Group

THURSDAY 17TH APRIL 2014 9am TO 4pm
Commemoration Events April 2014
The Executive team and Management are committed to the following three important events during the month of April 2014. Club members are encouraged to participate and attend.
1. Monday 14th April - Napier Civic Field of Remembrance (White Crosses Project) – commemorating the centenary of WW1 – 1914 -1918, when 103,000 New Zealanders served overseas, 41,000 were wounded and sadly 18,500 were killed or subsequently died of their wounds. We have combined with the Napier City Council and the Taradale RSA to establish the Napier Civic “field of white crosses”, signifying and paying tribute to the loss of 207 citizens from the Napier/ Taradale district. The crosses will remain in situ until after the ANZAC Day services There are 20 schools and several youth groups from Napier/Taradale participating with the “laying” of the crosses plus several dignitaries, serving military personnel. This Civic Service is being held at the Cenotaph in Memorial Square, Napier and will commence at 10.15am.
2. Thursday 17th April – Annual Poppy Day Appeal – the Napier City Council has approved our street appeal for this day and we invite and welcome the support of as many members as possible to give just an hour of their day to this worthy cause. After all, the RSA organisation, of which you are a part, was formed by the Returned and Service members of our community way back in 1916 for the welfare and support of the Veterans’. However, with dwindling numbers of WWII, Korea, Malaya/Borneo and Vietnam Veterans’ we have new generations of even more Veterans’ from Iraq, Afghanistan and all the other NATO supported peacekeeping missions since. Many of these younger people and their families are also facing some serious health and other problems since their return home and need our support. Please add your name to a “Poppy Collectors” list around the Club, or leave your name and contact number at Reception, thank you. We also invite you to be generous with your donation which will be deposited into the Napier RSA Poppy Charitable Trust, with grants being considered and made by the Trustees.
3. Friday 25th April – ANZAC Day – services are being held in many places
throughout New Zealand and Australia and in many overseas places. We encourage you to attend at least one of the following services, along with your family or friends to pay your respects to the men and women who lost their lives or are still suffering as a result of their service. The world is a much better place because of their sacrifices. a) 6.00am - Dawn Parade – at Cenotaph, Memorial Square Napier b) 9.00am - Eskdale Church, Eskdale. c) 11.00am - Napier Civic Service – at Cenotaph, Memorial Square Napier.

New Zealand and the First World War
On 28 June 1914 Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the
throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and his wife
Sophie were assassinated in the Bosnian city of
Sarajevo. The fallout from this faraway event would
ultimately claim the lives of 18,500 New Zealanders and
wound more than 40,000.
Places thousands of miles from home with exotic-
sounding names such as Gallipoli, Passchendaele and
the Somme were forever etched in the national memory during what became known as the
Great War.
The war took more than 100,000 New Zealanders overseas, many for the first time. Some
anticipated a great adventure but found the reality very different. Being so far from home
made these New Zealanders very aware of who they were and where they were from. In
battle they were able to compare themselves with men from other nations.
Out of this came a sense of a separate identity, and many New Zealand soldiers began to
refer to themselves as ‘Kiwis’.
The significance of the war on New Zealand society was summed up by a man who
participated in it from Gallipoli to France. Ormond Burton went from being a stretcher-
bearer at Anzac Cove to a highly decorated infantryman on the Western Front.
He believed that ‘somewhere between the landing at Anzac and the end of the battle of the
Somme New Zealand very definitely became a nation’.
Quick facts and figures
The total population of New Zealand in 1914 was just over one million.
In all, 120,000 New Zealanders enlisted, of whom 103,000 served overseas.
A total of 2227 Maori and around 460 Pacific Islanders served overseas with the
New Zealand forces.
At least 3370 New Zealanders served in the Australian or imperial forces, winning
four Victoria Crosses.
In all, 550 nurses served with the New Zealand Expeditionary Force, and many
others enlisted in the United Kingdom.
A total of 18,500 New Zealanders died in or because of the war, and around 41,000
were wounded. More than 2700 died at Gallipoli and 12,500 on the Western Front.
The names of those who died are recorded on approximately 500 civic war
memorials throughout New Zealand.

London Lights
A young girl from Donegal leaves home to find work in the bright lights of London . She comes home 6 months later and steps out of a taxi wearing a full-length mink coat. "Begorrah, Colleen," says her mother "Tis a lovely soft coat yer wearin' an' it looks so expensive. Where did ye get that?" Colleen replies, "Sure now, I won it at the bingo. Don't they have wonderful prizes in London ." When the weekend's over, Colleen returns to the bright lights, but she's back to visit her mum a few months later. This time, when she steps out of the taxi, she's wearing a beautiful gold wristwatch and a large diamond ring. With the usual exchange with mum............"Won it at bingo!" Then Colleen returns to the bright lights again. A few months later, she's back again. And this time she's sporting a beautiful emerald diamond necklace with matching bracelet and earrings. She hands her mother £1,000 and explains that she won it all in bingo. Then she asks mum to run her a bath as she need to freshen up. Her mum draws the bath while Colleen gets undressed in her bedroom, but when she gets to the washroom, there's only a quarter inch of hot water in the bathtub.
Colleen, a wee bit peeved at her mum being so cheap with the hot water after being handed £1,000, calls downstairs, "mum! Sure now didn't I ask you to run me a bath? There's only a quarter inch of water in the tub!"
"Indade there is, me darlin" replies her mum. "But we don't want ye gettin' yer bingo card wet now, do we?"

Association News
“Keeping the comradeship alive” is the recently-adopted slogan of the Hastings
Branch, centred on the Hastings RSA. Members (both men and women) are generally
those from throughout the Bay who served from the 1940’s in the RNZAF or later,
although some are ex-RAF and other Commonwealth air forces or have an interest in
aviation generally.
The highlight for many this month has been the aircraft that participated in the recent
60th anniversary of the HB Airport. Once again the local skies echoed to the well-
remembered roar of Harvards, the Spitfire, Avenger and Mustang, to name just a few
who showed off their performance over the two days the flyin was open to the public
as part of Art Deco Week celebrations.
It was great to see the WW1 replica BE2 fighter (built by the Sir Peter Jackson
company from Masterton) take to the air on the Saturday and battle the quite strong
headwinds to entertain the several thousand who attended. Members and the wider
Napier community were shocked at the recent death of member Ron Ward, a tireless
worker for the district for many years.
It is not generally known that Ron was an associate of Sir Edmund Hillary when they
served together in the Pacific campaigns of WW2. The Branch, as part of its Objects,
supports the Napier and Hastings Squadrons of the ATC and offers their support in a
tangible form by attendance at Committee meetings and assisting with fundraising.
The ATC in return mount the honour guard at the annual November Air Force/Battle
of Britain Day Remembrance service at the Hastings cenotaph.
In association with the HB CMT Association, a day visit to RNZAF Ohakea is planned
for July 29 when a fully escorted tour of the base departments and services, and lunch
in the Mess, have been arranged. Branch members are to meet for lunch at the
Taradale RSA on Tuesday, June 19 (12 noon) and Napier RSA on Sunday, October
12, a warm welcome is extended to ex RNZAF/RSA members and partners to join
them.
Unless otherwise arranged, the members meet monthly for a social luncheon at the
Hastings Returned Services’ Association, Avenue Road, Hastings, on the second
Tuesday of each month, 12 noon for 12,30 meal. Partners and guests always
welcome.
Sunday luncheons are arranged specifically for the annual Air Force Remembrance
Day and Battle of Britain anniversary held in conjunction with a commemoration
service at the Hastings Cenotaph (9.30 a.m.). [There is also an annual Christmas
luncheon organised in early December.]
For further information on the Branch, its programme and membership, contact Les
Hewett 84335709 or [email protected].

Confession A man received the following text from his neighbour:
I am SO sorry Bob. I've been riddled with guilt and I have to confess. I have been tapping your wife, day and night when you're not around. In fact, more than you.
I'm not getting it at home, but that's no excuse. I can no longer live with the guilt and I hope you will accept my sincerest apology with my promise that it won't happen again.
Bob, feeling anguished and betrayed, went into his bedroom, grabbed his gun, and without a word, shot his wife and killed her.
A few moments later, a second text came in:
Damn autocorrect. I meant "wifi", not "wife".
Dinner invite
Last night I was sitting on the sofa watching TV when I heard my wife’s voice from the kitchen, “what would you like for dinner my love, chicken, beef or lamb?” I said, “thank you, I’ll have chicken please” She replied, You’re having soup you fat b*****d, I was talking to the cat!”
You’re Fired I got sacked from the Salvation Army soup kitchen, ungrateful bleeders. All I said was , “hurry up for goodness sake, some of us have homes to go to!”
