ANZAC walk in Brighton Cemetery

Brighton Cemetery Hawthorn Road, Brighton, VIC, Australia

On this walk we will visit 8 service persons who have been honoured with a flag. James Ernest Newland who was awarded a Victoria Cross 'For most conspicuous bravery, and devotion to duty, in the face of heavy odds, on three separate occasions’; Gladys Cain a nurse at Caulfield Military Hospital who died during the Spanish Flu Epidemic; and George Hawke Northcote whose wife persevered to be allowed to go to England to care for her husband George who was badly injured.  Today we pay homage.
