Mosman 1914-1918 on FromThePage

October 9, 2012 by Ben Brumfield

The Mosman community in New South Wales is preparing for the centennial of World War One, and as part of this project they've launched mosman1914-1918.net: "Doing our bit, Mosman 1914–1918".  The project describes itself as "an innovative online resource to collect and display information about the wartime experiences of local service people," and includes scan-a-thons, hack days, and build-a-thons.

One of their efforts involves transcription of a serviceman's diary with links to related names on local honor boards.  I'm delighted to report that they're hosting this project on FromThePage.com, and I look forward to working with and learning from the Mosman team.
