Description

The Legend of Albert Jacka by Peter Fitzsimons. From the shores of Gallipoli to the battlefields of France, the epic story and fierce battles of the first Australian soldier to be awarded the Victoria Cross in WW1. Our heroes can come from the most ordinary of places. As a shy lad growing up in country Victoria, no one in the district had any idea the man Albert Jacka would become. Albert 'Bert' Jacka was 21 when Britain declared war on Germany in August 1914. Bert soon enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force and the young private was assigned to 14th Battalion D Company. By the time they shipped out to Egypt he'd been made a Lance Corporal.'
