On the Front Line by Michael Hambrook was published by New Holland, in late 2012. It is a collection of tales of the experiences of individual men and women who served, before emigrating to Australia, in conflicts in which Australia was involved - "astonishing real life tales are told by witnesses on the ground, underground, in the air and at sea". Importantly for our Association, the collection includes a recount of the experiences of our Member, Robert Lapsley, one of our few surviving PoWs.
The Association expresses its sympathy and sends condolences to our member Mrs Cecilia (Cissy) Greaves on the loss of her son, Stan, who passed away on December 27, 2012, after a long illness. Stan was the son of Cissy and John Greaves (dec), a longtime Member of the Association and a nephew of our Member, Bea Hutcheon
