A bronze bas relief sculpted to honour York-born World War I Victoria Cross winner Lawrence Dominic McCarthy and a plaque commemorating his actions and the part all York servicemen played in the war will be dedicated.
Also to be unveiled is a bronze plaque marking a newly installed historic World War I armament, a 77mm Krupp Gun captured from the Germans by members of 28 Battalion AIF on August 23, 1918.
The Australian Government presented the gun to York in 1920 when captured German armaments were distributed around the country to be displayed as a reminder that they had been won at great cost in human sacrifice.
