plaque dedication

[Max Hedges]

yesterday we went to the war memorial in Canberra for a plaque deciation of the 2/2 battilion in which father served. There were quite a few of the old diggers there for the ceremony including Sir Federick Chilton who is now 101 years old and General Paul Cullen who is now 97 years old. These two men were original company commanders of the battilion when it was being formed in October 1939 in Sydney.

The plaques are laid in the grounds of the War Memeorial beside the foot path, the Canberra Times had a good article on the front page today.
