On the 14 Nov 1916 Melbourne College of Pharmacy student Eric Bisset in #WWI. In 2019 a posthumous Bachelor of Pharmacy (Honours) was conferred on him by @MonashUni. Just one name, among many, on our Honour Roll to remember this #RemembranceDay

On the eve of #ArmisticeDay @NotreDameDeLorette, the largest French military cemetery, I took a moment to walk around the Ring of Remembrance, where almost 600,000 soldiers of all nationalities are commemorated. A moving moment to reflect on so many brutally lost lives.
Thank you @couvedm. We remembered Douglas E Towl, who graduated with honours as Pharmacy Silver Medallist before being KIA & later his pharmacist uncle also died in the field. And of course we remembered Alan & Harry Couve, & the 5 Soldiers of #WW1. – at Melbourne, Victoria

30 pharmacy students of The College of Pharmacy (now @MonashPharm) paused their studies to enlist during WWI. Four never returned, one stayed behind as a photographer, helping to identify the graves of fallen soldiers. @HonourRoll

#RemembranceDay
After #WW1, cities, schools & organisations were offered ‘trophies of war’ proportionate to their sacrifice. A grim task of the College of Pharmacy was to collect our ‘trophy’ from enemy loot that was being stored at Royal Exhibition Building. (1/2)
To mark Remembrance Day the Royal Exhibition Building will light up #RedtoRemember on November 10th and 11th, as we honour veterans and their families for their sacrifice and service.
We continue to share their memories through our Wartime Stories 🔗 fal.cn/3jI32
From the captured cannons, weapons and machinery of war, the College of Pharmacy was awarded a German machine gun and sled, similar to this one in a pic from the @AWMemorial. Now lost to time, there is no records of its whereabouts (it was perhaps reclaimed for metal during #WW2) – at Melbourne, Victoria
