'Raise a glass' idea raises fuss in RSL
The state president, Doug Formby, said 13 RSL districts covering Queensland voted unanimously not to support the campaign. "We don't think it appropriate for the RSL badge and image to be associated with the promotion of alcohol. We are dealing with many hundreds of veterans who are affected by beer - directly, or as a result of consuming alcohol - because of service-related problems," Mr Formby said.
