Petition for a Boer War Memorial
Thursday, 29 September 2011 16:32 in Ryan Events
I recently met with members and friends of the Queensland Branch of the Boer War Memorial Association.
I am pleased to support their efforts in seeking funding for a Boer War Memorial on Anzac Parade, Canberra, to honour the service and sacrifice of the 23,000 or so men and women of Australia who served our country in the Boer War of 1899 - 1902, of whom around 1,000 gave their lives. These same men and women laid down the foundations for the Australian Defence Force which has served our country so well these past 110 years.
Please consider signing the petition to support the Boer War Memorial Association, which can be obtained by contacting my office or by clicking on the link below:
