Ceremony - Battle of Amiens
The Battle of Amiens, 8th August
1918, was one of the most successful advances made by Allied forces during
the WWI. The efforts of the ANZAC Corps were orchestrated by
General John Monash and
would be much lauded as an example of combined arms warfare in a conflict mostly
remembered for the stalemate of trench warfare. Each year at 8am on the 8th of
August a service is held at the
Shrine of Remembrance to mark this battle and remember the men who fought
it.
