Army Wives Keep Support for Vietnamese Boy Program
At the Army Officers Wives Association annual meeting in Canberra, members voted to continue aiding a six year old boy left fatherless in Vietnam. The retiring president Mrs R Hughes reported ongoing help to Koomarri Training Centre, War Widows Guild, and the Vietnam wounded soldiers holiday scheme run by Rotary. The group also sent clothing to Vietnam, provided monthly visits to the Sir Lesley My Head Home for Veterans in Yass, and staffed the Canberra Hospital kiosk monthly. Mrs Hughes announced a new president, Mr D Dunstan, who succeeds her, with a new committee elected.
