We are making arrangements for our meetings to be held on the 12th of September 2020. However, we may have to wait until next year. As of the 1st of August, we have six weeks until our AGM meeting and we may still have to postpone them. This is not what I had intended to do as these meetings set out our arrangements for the year. We will confirm whether the meeting is on or off as soon as we can. DO NOT BUY AIRFARES. If we do have to postpone then we may have to consider holding the AGM on line through Zoom or similar. The Association has had an invitation from the State Library for five Nashos to speak about their life in the service. Nashos from Navy, Army, Air Force, Vietnam and Officer Training at Scheyville were interviewed. These interviews will be able to be viewed at the State Library on a digital wall frame in the near future, We are still working on the Nasho Nominal Roll. We are in the process of trying to get the Southern States to add their names to the roll. Have you checked if your name is on the roll and if your details are correct? I wish all our members good health and please adhere to the COVID-19 recommendations TREASURER’S REPORT (Neal Freier) COVID-19 has had an impact on everyone including the Nashos. Our AGM was to be held in March and had to be postponed. We have pencilled in 12th September for our AGM but that is not certain at this stage. If the second wave of COVID-19 hits Queensland, then the AGM will have to be postponed again. Once we know we will advise our members. Each year after our AGM I furnish an Annual Information Statement to the ACNC. I have been in contact with the ACNC who understand the situation because of the virus. They are content for me to just complete their Annual Information Statement which I will do. Even though it is not necessary I will also attach a copy of our fully audited financial report. On the subject of finance, I am happy with everything. We are in the process of applying for several grants all of which are necessary to keep us in a sound position. Our patron, Angela Owen, is always on the ball and has identified two recent grants we can apply for. Angela also acquired a near new desk computer which she gave to us. Angela also gave us a carton of hand sanitizer which will be distributed to branches. Well this would be the shortest report I have furnished. Outside of COVID-19 there is no bad news. I hope you all keep in good health and are happy. EDITORIAL (Vince Crowley Editor) The issue this month is ‘typos’ – there are everywhere. There would not be a newspaper in Australia that doesn’t have typos. Don’t we love telling another person about their typos. Recently, at a funeral, the last line of the 23rd Psalm read ‘swell in the house of the Lord’ instead of ‘dwell’. I get pulled up for spelling Whiskey with an ‘e’, but only by Scots. We are not all perfect, so let us get on and enjoy life. The other issue is ‘Texts to the Editors’. In our paper, we have half a page on five days and a whole page on Tuesday. We have about ten regulars who spar with each other, the armchair football coaches, and of course the political combatants. They are a sorry lot and at end of the day achieve very little. PAGE 1 2020 MEDAL OF THE ORDER OF AUSTRALIA (O.A.M.) AWARDEES This year, six people (that we know of) associated with the Nashos have been recognised by being awarded an OAM. Like many persons who are recognised by various organisation, these persons are surprised by the award and, in turn, acknowledge the people with whom they work. NANCY DAWN BATES OAM Wife of Tony, Member of Hervey Bay Branch Citation: For service to the community of Maryborough Media Note: Fraser Coast Chronicle; Community of Maryborough; five other awards. In August 2014 Tony Bates was asked by his wife Nancy where he wanted to spend the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing. He thought for a minute. “Maryborough is the best place to spend it because the first man ashore at Gallipoli came from Maryborough,” he declared, before adding fateful words. “And I don’t know why we don’t make more of it.” Nancy raised the subject of recognition for Duncan Chapman over a coffee the next morning with then Fraser Coast mayor Gerard O’Connell, formed a committee and ran a community campaign to raise funds. A statue of Lt Duncan Chapman was unveiled for the centenary, but by that time Nancy had bigger ideas. She realised how few people understood what happened at Gallipoli and the sequence of events on the Western Front,” she said. “We also had a statue of a man peering at the cliffs of Gallipoli, so we set out the build a stylised sculpture of the Anzac Cove landscape and to tell that story of the original Anzacs in a personal, chronological, multi-layered trail with storyboards, audio effects and sculptures.” Tony, who served in Vietnam with Psychological Operations and is a member of the Hervey Bay Nashos, has sometimes wondered about the four-year interruption of the couple’s travel plans but is happy with the legacy, rated world-class and the best memorial to the original Anzacs outside of Canberra.

  • Life in a Padded Cell: a Biography of Tony Cohen, Australian Sound Engineer by Dale Blair ©Copyright
    Life in a Padded Cell: A Biography of Tony Cohen, Australian Sound Engineer by Dale Blair ©copyright ~ One ~ Satan has possessed your Soul! ‘Tony is very devout in “God’s Lesson”. I cannot speak highly enough of Tony’s manners and behaviour. They are beyond reproach’. It was the sort of report card every parent liked to see. It was 1964. The Beatles were big and Tony Cohen was a Grade One student at St. Francis de Sales primary school, East Ringwood. The following year he took his first communion. The Beatles were still big and there seemed little to fear for the parents of this conscientious and attentive eight-year-old boy. The sisters who taught him at that early age would doubtless have been shocked at the life he would come to lead – a life that could hardly be described as devout. Tony Cohen was born on 4 June 1957 in the maternity ward of the Jessie MacPherson hospital in Melbourne. Now a place specializing in the treatment of cancer patients it was a general hospital then. He was christened Anthony Lawrence Cohen. His parents Philip and Margaret Cohen had been living in James Street, Windsor, but had moved to the outer eastern suburb of East Ringwood prior to the birth of their son. Philip Cohen was the son of Jewish immigrants who had left Manchester, England, and settled in Prahran, one of Melbourne’s inner eastern suburbs. Philip’s father had served in the First World War, survived and then migrated to Australia with his wife and infant son (Tony’s Uncle David).

  • Orange Blossoms
    A cultural history of gardens in Orange and district Dedicated to the gardeners of Orange past and present Their imagination, creativity, knowledge and hard work enriches the environment and our experience of the city and its surrounds. The parks, gardens and trees are perhaps the most loved feature of Orange. This exhibition honours the contribution that gardens and gardeners make to the beauty and amenity of the city and district. It is not a complete history but the start of a project to better record the region’s garden history. Gardens are the most ephemeral works of creation. They are always changing in a cycle of growth and decay. And they can disappear leaving few traces of their glory and no records of their maker. Gardens are not signed like a portrait or documented in land title records. Nevertheless they are a central part of the creative history and cultural heritage of Orange. What would Orange be like without them?

Teams of renowned Australian artists of the highest calibre embark on journeys across Queensland to engage and excite regional singer-songwriters in free collaborative song writing workshops. A diverse range of amateur and emerging artists of all ages are attracted to these workshops as they provide unique educational and networking opportunities rarely offered outside major centres. Song Trails is enthusiastically assessed by the local participants, with 100% rating the workshop as a ‘fantastic experience’ (see recent participant survey page 3). Song Trails 2011 builds on the highly successful regional Queensland tours of the 2007 and 2009 festivals. Each council will host an exceptional line up of artists made up of Clare Bowditch, Kev Carmody, Stephen Cummings (The Sports), and Dave Faulkner (Hoodoo Gurus). Singer-songwriter Clare Bowditch 1 The workshop format creates an informal learning space where individuals from all walks of life can hone their talents under the tutelage of the best musicians in the business. Participants have the opportunity to write songs in groups led by the artists, present their own work for assessment and assistance by the team of experts, as well as learn tips for successful song writing from the artistic team.
