Towards the end of the service for Battle of Fromelles Commemoration on 19th July was a final highlight in the awarding of Association Life Membership to our hard working President of the Brisbane Branch Tony Wadeson.
–
The award which had been kept a close secret from Tony was presented by Brigadier Bill Date. Tony had been the Secretary of the Brisbane Branch of the 31st Battalion Association since its inception and only took over as President at the AGM, after the passing, last year, of the Branch’s initial President Ray Fogg. In his acceptance speech expressed his thanks to members of the Associatuion and paid tribute particularly to his good friend, the late Ray Fogg for all his years of work for the Association.
Congratulations Tony. Well Done!
