Military buffs and history enthusiasts in Maitland are being enlisted to help with a giant project to commemorate the 100th year since the nightmare Battle of Passchendaele was fought in World War I.
Foremost among the soldiers who took part in the horrific fighting were the men of the 34th Battalion – known as Maitland’s Own.
The commemoration will take place at Maitland Regional Art Gallery in October, 2017.
