SUMMARY:Anzac Guerillas in Yugoslavia's Anti-Nazi Resistance
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will discuss a group of Second World War Australian servicemen who performed the bulk of their service in Yugoslavia. \n \n \nCaptured in Greece in 1941\, they escaped in transit to occupied Yugoslavia and became embroiled in the war of resistance against Axis occupation. And later\, in the civil war between the two resistance factions\, the Partisans and the Četniks. Several of these Australians were later recruited as agents of Special Operations Executive (SOE) and\, in the assessment of the speaker\, provided the most accurate intelligence of any Allied sources from that theatre\, save Ultra. \nSpeaker – Edmund Goldrick\nEdmund Goldrick is a historian and bookseller from Canberra. He has lived in the UK\, Germany\, and Slovenia\, and in 2020 was hired as co-author and researcher for Neil Churches’ The Greatest Escape\, an account of the hundred man breakout from Stalag XVIII D. This research led him to uncover the accounts that formed the basis of his recently released book Anzac Guerrillas (Hachette Australia\, 2025). \nLECTURE TIME AND VENUE: 10:30AM Saturday 6 December 2025 at The Auditorium\, Anzac Memorial Hyde Park\, Hyde Park South\, corner Elizabeth and Liverpool Streets\, Sydney CBD. Admission is free of charge but a donation would be appreciated. For information call 0419 698 783 or email: president@militaryhistorynsw.com.au
