It wasn’t the party that had been planned, Covid-19 put paid to that, but if you’ve waited 100 years, you are going to celebrate anyway. An intimate event, organised by John Russell’s daughter, Sue Morgan, and Peter Jones, President of the Deception Bay sub-branch of the RSL, launched this Antarctic legend into his next century.
At the end of the formal presentations Trevor and Peter Field (Web Manager for ANARE) symbolically flew the ANARE Club flag over John. Next year, on 22nd of October, will mark 70 years since John first stood beneath the flag.
