When communist North Korea invaded South Korea in June 1950, an American-led United Nations coalition drove the North Koreans back, which, in turn, brought China into the war. When an armistice was signed three years later, the border between the two Koreas was practically unchanged. Though the fighting was on a vast scale, particularly in 1950-51, the war was often called a ‘police action’. In fact, it was one of the most significant conflicts, politically and militarily, of the twentieth century. http://www.kriskerehona.com/ANZACS-on-the-Western-Front http://www.kriskerehona.com/following/kriskerehona.com/ANZACS-on-the-Western-Front Tue, 31 Jan 2012 04:21:11 +0000 Kris Kerehona 2474095 <img src="http://payload8.cargocollective.com/1/2/80224/2474095/Screen Shot 2011-12-18 at 1.05.22 PM.jpg" border="0" width="356" height="493" width_o="356" height_o="493" src_o="http://payload8.cargocollective.com/1/2/80224/2474095/Screen Shot 2011-12-18 at 1.05.22 PM_o.jpg" align="left" /> The Australian War Memorial's Head of Research Dr Peter Pedersen talks about his new book ANZACS on the Western Front. ANZACs on the Western Front is the definitive guide to the Western Front battlefields. Meticulously researched and written by the Head of Research at the Australian War Memorial, Dr Peter Pedersen, this landmark publication guides readers chronologically through the battles in which Australians and New Zealanders fought on the Western Front from 1916-1918. Lavishly illustrated in vibrant colour, with fascinating images from the Memorial's archives as well as new panoramic location shots to provide an in situ perspective for the reader, each chapter covers the important tactical milestones passed along the way and explains how the Australian Imperial Force and the New Zealand Expeditionary Force evolved to meet the war's changing demands. www.awm.gov.au/shop/item/9781742169811/ http://www.kriskerehona.com/Amazing-Space-Singing-the-Memorial http://www.kriskerehona.com/following/kriskerehona.com/Amazing-Space-Singing-the-Memorial Tue, 31 Jan 2012 04:21:09 +0000 Kris Kerehona 2474211 As part of the Canberra International Music Festival, Thursday 19 May 2011, Roland Peelman and the Song Company with the ANU School of Music Vocal Department performed Agnus Dei by Samuel Barber, in the Hall of Memory, within the Commemorative Area.
