AHEAD of ANZAC Day, Gloucester VIEW Club honoured Australia’s veterans at its April meeting.
Club President Robyn Henderson welcomed 33 members and three guests to the meeting, before minutes, financial statements and reports were tables.
Since 2022 Gloucester VIEW Club has researched and presented an address at each April meeting to honour the ANZAC tradition.
The address covered the Vietnam War, women at war and the Kokoda campaign.
“This year the ANZAC commemoration, entitled ‘Fact or Fiction; Myth or Legend?’, once again researched and written by Assistant Secretary Bev Maybury, was ably presented by nine members, ending with the traditional words, ‘Lest We Forget’,” a club spokesperson told NOTA.
In addition, the club’s newsletter editor, Pat Radford, produced an inspired ANZAC edition as well as cooking and distributing ANZAC biscuits to all in attendance.
The club’s May meeting will be a double celebration as VIEW Australia turns 65 and Gloucester VIEW will be 36 years old.
