This ceremony is part of the programme of events organised to commemorate the anniversary of the presentation of the George Cross to Malta, awarded for “the heroism and devotion of its people" during the heavy military bombardment suffered by the island in the early part of World War II. This will be followed by another activity on the afternoon of the 14th: a visit to Fort Madliena where the President of the George Cross Island Association, Judge Dr. Joseph Galea Debono, will give a PowerPoint presentation on the Victoria Lines and a short tour of the Fort together with a small section of the Victoria Lines built by the British in the last quarter of the 19th century. The time the events start has not been set yet; further updates will be posted on the official site of the George Cross Island Association.
