The Battle of Villers-Bretonneux
On April 26 The Rotary Club of Gosford will commemorate the passing of 100 years since the Battle of Villers-Bretonneux.
          The evening will begin with a 2 course dinner before proceeding to the main event...........the history of this important battle.
This was to be the first time a major battle was led by an Australian, General John Monash.          It proved to be a turning point in what  had previously been an intractable struggle in a horrible war.             In what we plan to be a tasteful presentation there will be not only the history of the battle but also pictures of the devestation.
           It is well known that the French Nation has not forgotten Australia's contribution and we are greatly honoured the the French Consul General and the French Ambassador will be attending.    The Australian Government will be represented by MHR Lucy Wicks.
 
        While still available tickets can be purchased at only $30pp by contacting President Jim Katrikilis on 0414 777 748
