12th June 1915

Announcement Date: 12/06/1915

“Well I should say that before this reaches you, you will all be well aware of what an eventful day the 25th of April was over here.  It certainly was a day that will go down in history as one of the bloodiest days the world has ever seen.  If you could only see the position & nature of the country our men fought over that day, it would send a cold [shiver] of pride down your back”
