Merry ChristmasThe 2/2nd Field Regiment Association committee and members would like to extend a warm Merry Christmas to family, friends and supporters of the Association. Thank you to all who have attended events and been involved in the Association this year. We hope you have a blessed Christmas and a prosperous new year. 6th Division in Action in Greece & Crete.Sent to me today by the grandson of Gunner Ern Moor VX933, is this 26 minute YouTube documentary of the Battles of Greece & Crete in which many of the 2/2nd Field Regiment were heavily involved in these conflicts. The title ANZAC was made using archival footage from WWII cameramen and supplied by The Australian War Memorial. Being on YouTube it is readily accessible. I acknowledge the AWM and YouTube for the documentary and Chris Williams for the advice and note. To view, click below: A Little Bit of History! I received a phone call from friends who are on tour and currently in Galle, Sri Lanka. |
