For all those who have served

CENTENARY OF ARMISTICE 2018

By JOHN RYAN THIS Sunday marks 100 years since the guns fell silent on the Western Front at the 11th hour on November 11, 1918, and Clint Grose (pictured), a contemporary army veteran who served in the Solomons and Afghanistan, says it’s important to remember those who served and the sacrifices made not only during military service, but also how hard it’s been for so many to come home.

“It’s 100 years since the guns fell silent and the Armistice was signed in France – as a veteran myself I think it’s very important that we do remember it,” Mr Grose told Dubbo Photo News this week. “World War I saw the birth of our nation as we know it and it was also the birth of the Australian Digger, so the 100th Armistice Day is very significant and hopefully it will be commemorated appropriately.” Continued page 5
