meet the committee

A new Committee was elected at the Annual General Meeting held in July 2005.  The Committee meets on the second Tuesday of every month beginning at 7pm.  These are open meetings with anyone welcome to attend.  The Society's General Meetings are held on the last Tuesday of every month, except December, beginning at 7.30pm.  The venue for both meetings is the Society's Clubroom within the National Military Vehicle Museum (NMVM) 252 Commercial Rd, Port Adelaide, 5015 South Australia.
    Due to Privacy issues, personal details and photographs of the Office Bearers have been removed.  In their place are historical and  inspirational anecdotes relating to the portfolios.  It is hoped these will be entertaining and of interest.  (Web Master)
    President - Bob Moseley

    "And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."
    --John Fitzgerald Kennedy

    Vice President - Ray Carn

    "Whether they should or not, [presidential candidates] will not, in the final analysis, choose their vice presidential candidate to succeed them.  They will choose them to help them succeed."    -    James G. O' Hara

    "I am not in a leadership position. I am supporting the President.  He can exert the leadership and I can support him."    -    Nelson Rockefeller

    Secretary - Trevor Brown

    One of the most famous diarists was an Englishman named Samuel Pepys who lived between 1633 - 1703.

    Treasurer - John Bisbal

    As Treasurer and as Prime Minister, Paul Keating transformed Australia’s financial system and economy. As Treasurer from 1983 to 1991 in the government of Bob Hawke, Paul Keating was the architect of Australia’s economic deregulation. The government floated the Australian dollar and allowed foreign banks to operate in Australia from 1983.

    Editor - Bill Calder

    Hungarian born American newspaper Editor and Publisher Joseph Pulitzer 1847-1911, was in his time one of the most powerful journalists in the United States.

    "Put it before them briefly so they will read it, clearly so they will appreciate it, picturesquely so they will remember it and, above all, accurately so they will be guided by its light."

    Public Relations Officer - David Carmen

    Phineas Taylor (P.T.) Barnum (1810-1891)

    Entrepreneur, master showman, million selling book author, and politician, Barnum has indelibly left his mark. He is credited with coining the phrases, "throw your hat in the ring", "let's get the show on the road," "rain or shine," and "the greatest show on earth". Ironically, the phrase he's most associated with, "there's a sucker born every minute" was actually said by a rival.

    Safety Officer / Registrar - Peter Sabey

    "I don't get no respect," has been the record keepers lament for hundreds of years.  Record keeping is an automatic and largely invisible function, subsumed beneath and entwined with the activities it enables. Thus most people are as unaware of it as we are of breathing . . . until something goes wrong. Even though we acknowledge we need record keeping, we view it as a complication that slows us from getting on with our real work.

    Safety Officer - Hugh Davis

    Alfred E. Neuman, the famous character from the Mad Magazine publication, had a simple philosophy leading to his celebrated phrase "What Me Worry?"  Although he does worry, the sentiment epitomizes Hugh.
