Personal tributes of troops were displayed and 100 crosses prepared to mark every year of remembrance since 1918.
Logan Village RSL president Coll Evans said the navy and army cadets took centre stage at the ceremony to highlight the importance of passing on remembrance to future generations.
“We need to spend more time getting the message out to the younger generation...getting them involved in these ceremonies is a step in the right direction,” he said.
Mr Evans said Logan Village was far from just a small town during the time of conflict with at least 20,000 American troops based near Camp Cable Road.
“It was a thriving place,” he said.
Logan Village museum researchers compiled an honour roll of people who died in World War One which will feature in the 2019 Anzac Day ceremony.
Logan Village Museum volunteer Mic Noble said it was an amazing day to be an Australian witnessing the 100th anniversary marking the end of the World War One conflict.
Mr Evans said between 200 and 300 people attended the remembrance ceremony.
Jimboomba RSL sub branch president Bill Milkin said about 150 people attended the ceremony at the Jimboomba cenotaph.
“It went without a hitch...we time it every year. The Last Post was supposed to start at 11am and this year we hit 11am and 10 seconds,” he said.
A 98-year-old World War Two veteran laid a wreath with assistance from his family.
The service was followed with a morning tea prepared by Chicks Conquering Cancer members.
