You are invited to a talk to be given by Dennis de Uray-Ura entitled:

‘The Last Eight Weeks of Nazi Rule in Europe’

Dennis was a Hungarian refugee who fled his homeland in the wake of the Soviet advance. He fled with his parents to Germany in March 1945. The speaker will recount his experiences in a collapsing Germany. These included witnessing mass shootings, public hangings and mistreatment of Prisoners of War (POWs). His personal experiences also included his sojourn in the Mauthausen Concentration Camp.

Having survived his ordeal Dennis appreciates the value of moral courage and freedom. The speaker deliberately came to Australia because it was a stable constitutional monarchy. He is therefore determined that Australia’s system of  government be retained.
