In Memoriam



Simeon Frankel at the War Memorial

Corporal Simeon Frankel (pictured here) is one of the soldiers included on the Australian War Memorial's online Honour Roll. The War Memorial database includes 12,000 photographs that are connected to a database record (Simie is one of the lucky ones, just click on the link).

This photo is not from the War Memorial, it comes from the afore mentioned book: Australian Jewry Book of Honour.
