"This year our Padre is the Reverend Judy Holdsworth and the catafalque party from the Australian Defence Force Academy will be led by Petty Officer Brendan Smith.
"We will also have a group from HMAS led by Chief Petty Officer Mick Tanner and a group of RAAF logicians led by Wing Commander Mark Carleton," Mr Letts said.
The commemoration will follow with the occasional address being given by Bombala High School Student Representative Council president Roan Larsen.
Members of the public, clubs, schools and organisations will be invited to lay wreaths at the Cenotaph.
