War Heroes
War History
St Patrick’s College has honoured the contributions of hundreds of Old Collegians to Australia’s war history with the launch of a new book and the induction of four new College Legends in 2015.
To mark the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing, the College spent 18 months researching the lives of nearly 300 Old Collegians who fought in World War I. These biographies were compiled into a commemorative book which was launched at the College’s annual Legends dinner on Saturday May 2, 2015.
St Patrick’s College Headmaster John Crowley said the book was published with the generous support of the Department of Veterans Affairs and of the St Patrick’s College Old Collegians Association and was a valuable addition to the proud history of the school.
“Through the great work of our archivist, Ms Catriona Banks, we have been able to unearth some incredible stories of bravery and sacrifice by our Old Collegians and we are delighted to be able to bring them together in one publication for the first time,” Mr Crowley said.
“We could think of no better way of honouring these brave men by launching this fine book 100 years after the commencement of World War I.”
