SUMMARY:The Chipilly Six: Lucus Jordon in Conversation with Ross McMullin
DESCRIPTION:On 9 August 1918\, on high ground overlooking the Somme River\, an entire British Army Corps was held up by German machine gunners. The battle had raged for 30 hours and more than 2000 Englishmen had fallen. Meanwhile\, two Australian sergeants\, Jack Hayes and Harold Andrews\, went absent without leave and crossed the Somme ahead of the British lines. Gathering weapons and four of their best mates\, Hayes and Andrews returned to take on the Germans. \nIn his latest book\, The Chipilly Six: Unsung Heroes of the Great War\, historian Lucas Jordan weaves a compelling tale of the lives of these soldiers\, chronicling their return home and years after service\, through a pandemic\, the Great Depression\, another world war and the very first Anzac Day dawn service. \nLucas will appear in conversation with award-winning historian and biographer Ross McMullin. \nLight refreshments will be provided after the talk and copies of The Chipilly Six: Unsung Heroes of the Great War will be available for purchase and signing. \nThis event is free for Shrine Friends* and volunteers using their discount codes. ($5 for non-members).  Booking essential. \n* One free ticket per membership \nClick here to book via the Shrine of Remembrance website
