Armistice of Mudros – Jim Claven

Historian Jim Claven discusses the agreement which ended the fighting between the Allies and the Ottoman Empire. This armistice encompassed the eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East and affected tens of thousands of Australian soldiers.

Jim’s upcoming publication Lemnos and Gallipoli Revealed: A Pictorial History of the Anzacs in the Aegean, 1915-16 is due for release in late April/early May.

On Sunday 24 March the annual Greek National Day Service will be held on the Shrine Forecourt at 12.30pm to commemorate the Australian men and women who served in the Greek campaign of the Second World War and the many Greek-Australians who have served in the Australian Defence Forces.
