Visiting VK meets TRAC
Date : 02 / 05 / 2015
Author : Jim Linton - VK3PC
The enduring Turkey-Australian friendship borne out of the WWI
conflict at Gallipoli 100 years ago, has resulted in a special
presentation by the Telsiz ve Radyo Amatörleri Cemiyeti (TRAC).
June Sim VK4SJ, visiting Gallipoli with her family for the
ANZAC Day services on the former battlefield of her late father,
was meet by TRAC officials including its President, Aziz Sasa TA1E.
June VK4SJ said: "After a personal and moving occasion, finally
we were able to catch up with Aziz.
The family and I had dinner and spent several pleasant hours in
his company."
During the evening Sue accepted a Certificate of Participation
and a medal given by TRAC. "Aziz TA1E is a very knowledgeable
and pleasant gentleman. We did our best to try and
persuade him to pay us a visit in Australia in the near future,
" said June.
Now that the trip of a lifetime is over, the importance and
memories of that pilgrimage will last forever.
