State Shadow Minister for Roads Walt Secord told J-Wire: “I represented NSW Labor at the annual Jewish Anzac Day service. NAJEX president Charles Aronson announced that the National Association of Jewish Ex-servicemen and women had received a major grant from the Federal Government to commission a history of Jewish servicemen and women in Australia – to coincide with Gallipoli centenary. Chaplains Rabbi Jeffrey Kamins and Rabbi Yossi Friedman officiated at a beautiful and moving service.”
