@MatMcLachlan Congratulations Mat! However it is not entirely 'forgotten'. Krithia is actually named in the Gallipoli niche in the Hall of Memory at the Anzac Memorial, Sydney.

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@MHS_NSW Agreed - I consult this book constantly for Great War info and it is visually lovely indeed. 5 stars.

@dunce_scotus Personally I utterly utterly adored this book and Carlton is a very engaging writer and an expert on the RAN so boo...@MikeCarlton01

@SydneyClio @cityofsydney @pha_nsw @ProfHistAus @PHAVicTas This is breaking (hearts) news! Wow! What's the plan Lisa? OMFG!

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@cfwriter @history2wheeler @blue_prop OOOH - who is she? Nice anchor brooch - or was she a rather glam WRAN?

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@MHS_NSW This is the second image from this article on the Anzac Memorial's website written by Prof Peter Stanley that you have posted today. I did the picture research. Is this in any way a conflict of interest? Thanks for letting me know. https://t.co/9mZFOuxwdI

When you work in a museum and have to re-write the object description not to mention the acquisition proposal 🙃It’s not a darning tool, it’s a very naughty toy: Roman dildo found https://t.co/qPkGdAwRdq

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@history2wheeler @DrDreHistorian Agreed! Dodgy small dope smelling dank venue in the Inner West would be lovely! Now where's my long shoegazers fringe gone? Oh and my undergrad years! The best!

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@MHS_NSW Oooh - there's a rather lovely gold framed version of this in the RUSI Library at the Anzac Memorial, Hyde Park, Sydney 🙂

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@ProfPeterDoyle Oh how delightful! I am currently in the middle of your wonderful book on the Princess Mary tin. It's a cracking read and wonderfully illustrated. 5 stars!

[Dr Catie Gilchrist @Historywhore]

@KarlJames_1945 Me thinks that's the Anzac Memorial in Hyde Park, Sydney. Most beautiful place to work in Sydney in my humble opinion! Every day is an utter pleasure and delicious delight.
