SUMMARY:Gallipoli 1915: a century on
DESCRIPTION:An international conference hosted by the Australian War Memorial and the Australian National University Llewellyn Hall\, Australian National University\, Canberra.\nThe Gallipoli campaign of 1915 was one of the most controversial campaigns of the First World War. The major allied powers aimed at shortening the war by eliminating Turkey\, but the campaign ended in complete failure and over 140\,000 allied casualties. \nOne hundred years later\, the campaign still generates mythology and debate over the strategy and planning\, the real or illusory opportunities for success\, and the causes of failure. The campaign involved military and naval forces from many nations around the world\, and the lingering memory of Gallipoli continues to play a central role in the national narratives of Australia\, New Zealand\, and Turkey. \nOn the centenary of Gallipoli\, Australia’s national memorial and museum of war joins with Australia’s national university to host this major international conference. Leading historians from all the countries who contributed forces to the campaign will present the most current perspectives on the many faces of Gallipoli. \nThemes to be covered will include: \n\nThe planning and conduct of the campaign on land and sea\nThe impact of Gallipoli on the societies involved\nMyth\, memory\, and nationalism\nThe legacies and heritage of the Gallipoli peninsula\nGallipoli today.\n\nThis is the conference not to miss in this important centenary year. \nPlease contact Paulina Leko at Conference Logistics for any enquiries relating to the conference. Paulina can be contacted on 6281 6624 or paulina@conlog.com.au

SUMMARY:Choppers: Helicopters and the Vietnam War - MHHV one-day conference
DESCRIPTION:MHHV and the National Vietnam Veterans Museum (NVVM) will hold a one day conference at the NVVM on Saturday 20 April 2013\, between 9 am and 4.30pm: \n \n\n\nThe conference will be opened by Dr Peter Edwards\, AM\, Official Historian for Australia’s involvement in South East Asian conflict 1948-1975\, and the keynote speaker will be Air Vice Marshal Bob Treloar AO (RAAF Rtd). \nThe war in Vietnam has left indelible impressions upon our society.  One of the great icons from that decade-long conflict was the helicopter.  It was the first time that helicopters were used extensively in a war and as the war progressed the roles employed by helicopters expanded dramatically.  Whether operating as slicks (troop carriers)\, gunships\, medevac\, heavy lift\, observation or aerial trucks\, ‘choppers’ became the ubiquitous symbol of the war in Vietnam Рand essential for the conduct of the war.  No-one who served in Vietnam left without some experience of helicopters\, directly or indirectly. \nWhat Australian helicopter units served in Vietnam and what were their stories?  How did the Australian and New Zealand air and ground crew and performance compare to others? How did they adapt to new helicopter types and tactics? How did helicopters help or hinder our operations in Vietnam? What was the impact on casualty evacuation and survival rates for wounded?  What did we learn from the helicopter experience? These are some of the questions this symposium seeks to address. \nThis fully catered conference\, in the superb setting of the NVVM and under the wings of a Canberra bomber\, will be a must-go event for Vietnam veterans\, historians and those who want to learn more about the helicopter experience in Vietnam. \nTo Register and pay online for the Conference\, click here \nTo download a registration form and pay by cheque\, click here \n\n\n  \nTo learn more about the Museum dinner on Saturday evening 20 April at the NVVM\, click here \nDownload a copy of the Conference Programme by clicking here \n\n \n  \n\n\nFor speakers and delegates and their partners and families who expect to be on Phillip Island for the Choppers: Helicopters and the Vietnam War weekend of activities\, an accommodation package has been created with the superb Silverwater Resort nearby if you wish to avail of it.  Click here to book accommodation for 19 and/or 20 April 2013 in one\, two or three bedroom villas.   Use the promotional code VETS2013 to obtain the great rates available for this weekend – just enter the promotional code into the box and the special rates will come up. \n \nIf you do not have internet access to this link\, please call Meg Forsyth at Silverwater Resort who will be able to book you at the discounted rate when you give the promotional code. \nTel: 03 5671 9384. \nPlease book early to avoid disappointment as rates will go up as the resort fills for that weekend. \nTo learn more about the Museum Activities day on Sunday 21 April\, 2013\, click here  \n\n\nThis is a Military History and Heritage Week event – to learn more about MHH Week\, click here \nProudly supported by:

SUMMARY:An Evening with Michael Challinger\, Author of Anzacs in Arkhangel
DESCRIPTION:An opportunity to hear Michael Challinger\, author of The Anzacs in Arkhangel\, speak about his experiences whilst travelling through Russia gathering research for his historical account of our Australian diggers. It is the untold story of Australia and the invasion of Russia 1918-19.\nMany of us are unaware that as World War One was coming to a close and soldiers were returning home\, a small group of Australian men signed up for more fighting. This time\, the enemy was Russian Bolsheviks instead of Germans\, and the frontline was the wild and frozen wastelands of far north. \nIn this centenary year when we reflect on the service of Australian men and women in our armed forces I invite you to mark the ANZAC centenary and to also raise funds for your community group. \nTo help our community projects Michael will appear for no fee and reduce the cost of his book to encourage people to attend. \n•	A $30 ticket will include a signed copy of Anzacs in Arkhangel and refreshments. \n•	A $10 per ticket is available for just entry and refreshments. \n•	$5 from each ticket will be forwarded to the community group who has sold the ticket\, or to the community group nominated by the ticket purchaser. \nIf your service group is interested in participating please contact me at the following number. \nBarbara Wandoch 0409975889 (SRC Liaison Teacher Wellington Secondary College) \nTickets may be purchased online via this Googleform link: http://goo.gl/forms/VHrblz1Cn7
