Kims has a longstanding military connection from when Colonel Hughes-Hallett purchased Kims at the end of WWII and made it "a place to recover after this blasted war". We honour the contribution and suffering of all those who have served. Lest we forget. #ANZACday #remember #neverforgotten #thankyou
