Event Details
April 1941 – Hitler launches his invasion of Greece. In homes across Australia and New Zealand people feared what lay ahead for their loved ones who were sent as part of the Allied force sent to defend Greece. This documentary tells the story of that valiant defence like never before. Narrated by Barrie Cassidy whose father served in the campaign, the documentary is a unique account of this campaign and of the Anzacs who served there. A fitting document of this essential part of the Hellenic link to the Anzac story. Not to be missed.
