ANZAC Day – Lieutenant Norman Travers Simpkin

Sergeant Norman Travers Simpkin, 2nd Australian Light Horse Regiment

Sergeant Norman Travers Simpkin, 2nd Australian Light Horse Regiment


To add to the ANZAC commemorations I have written a piece for the Sacrifice project about the only soldier to serve at Gallipoli who is commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission in the United States. Travers Simpkin served with 2nd Australian Light Horse Regiment and was wounded at Quinn’s Post in August 1915. He died in California in 1919.
