Dear All,
On the 21 Aug 14, I provided an update on the progress of the Corps’ new memoir, “With Skill and Fighting – Craftsmen of the Australian Army 1942-2014”. The key advice from that email was:
- the final version of the Corps History manuscript was ‘with the publishers’;
- the team had undertaken ‘additional proof-reading .. ..to assure the authenticity of some stories’; and
- that proof reading had ‘added delay to the publication schedule by about two months’.
Ladies and Gentlemen
It is my intention to get the RAEME Association NT up & running.
The inaugural meeting of ex-Army Apprentice/RAEME Assoc will be held:
Friday 24th October 2014
1700 hrs
Darwin City RSL
As you can see above, the first meeting is this Friday night.
WO2 Leigh Boettcher CSM 101 FD WKSP & WO2 Jason Rodwell Artificer Mechanical - GE / Armaments will be in attendance.
It is also an opportunity to gather together as many ex-Army Apprentices as we can with the intention of organising an all Intakes reunion and see what part can we play in the Centenary of ANZAC celebrations in 2015.
All serving and ex RAEME members, if in Darwin or surrounding areas would you attend if possible and forward this Email to your contacts please.
Regards,
Kev. Forster
