25.01.2022 We don't know them all, but we owe them all. After 6 years, the war finally ended when Japan surrendered in August 1945. Australian ships had played a role in the push towards the Philippines and the Japanese home islands. Australian aircrew had fought in the air war over Germany while Australian infantry had continued mopping up campaigns in Borneo, New Britain, New Guinea, and on Bougainville. These men, and many more like them, are the contributing factors to the lives we ...lead today. They made sacrifice for people that they never met, and would never know. We owe them more than can be put into words, but at the very least a thank you. #VP #VJ #Victory #Pacific #Army #WW2 #WWII #war #secondwoldwar #historynerd #historic #military #collection #history #ww #soldier #militarylife #veteran #war #armedforces #OneInAMillion #OurVeterans #TYFYS #veteran #DiggersTribute #diggers #veterandiggers

16.01.2022 Today marks the 60th anniversary of the end of the Malayan Emergency. During the Emergency, personnel from the Royal Australian Navy, Australian Army and Royal... Australian Air Force fought in operations against communist forces. Our involvement lasted for 13 years from 1950 until 1963, three years after the conflict’s official end. As an undeclared war, the conflict received very little coverage in Australia, however, our veterans played a key role in bringing the long-running insurgency to an end. Today, we thank our veterans for their service and commemorate the lives of the 39 Australians who died while serving in Malaya, 15 of whom were killed in action. To learn more, visit: https://anzacportal.dva.gov.au//malayan-emergency-1948-1960 The Australian War Memorial will be livestreaming the Last Post Ceremony this afternoon from approximately 4:55pm AEST to pay tribute to all those who served and those who died while in Malaya. I encourage everyone to take a moment and hear Sergeant Cecil Charles Anderson’s story and commemorate our veterans for their service and sacrifice. Lest we forget.

06.01.2022 The Battle of Milne Bay was the Allies’ first defeat of Japanese forces on land during the Second World War. 1942 stands as one of the most significant years in Australia’s wartime history. As Australians fought in defence of our shores, there were major battles in Papua: along the Kokoda Track, at Milne Bay and at the Beacheads of Buna, Gona and, in early 1943, Sanananda. On the night of 2526 August 1942, a Japanese amphibious invasion force landed on the northern shore of ...Milne Bay at the eastern tip of Papua New Guinea. The aim was to secure a base from which to provide air and naval support for the overland attempt to take Port Moresby. The Japanese landing was opposed by Kittyhawk fighters of 75 and 76 Squadrons RAAF. For the next two days the Japanese, with tank support, gradually advanced towards the airstrips situated in the lowlands at the head of the bay. As they moved forward, the enemy soldiers were constantly harassed by the RAAF aircraft. The Battle of Milne Bay was hailed at the time as the first significant defeat of a Japanese force on land in the Second World War and an important morale booster for the Allies. https://hubs.ly/H0tYz0z0 #VP #VJ #Victory #Pacific #Army #WW2 #WWII #war #secondwoldwar #historynerd #historic #military #collection #history #ww #soldier #militarylife #veteran #war #armedforces #OurVeterans #TYFYS #veteran #DiggersTribute #diggers #veterandiggers #RAAF #Airfroce

01.01.2022 Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Darren Chester said Legacy Week was known for its trademark badges and was a simple way that Australians can support our ex-service personnel and their families, and say ‘thank you’. Every year since 1942, Legacy volunteers have fundraised across Australia for the families of veterans who stand by our service men and women both during and after their service, Mr Chester said. This year has been unprecedented in so many ways, and the coronavir...us crisis has heightened many of the pressures that our veterans and their families are experiencing. That is why it is more important than ever that we all do what we can to help organisations like Legacy support the families of veterans and I encourage Australians to consider buying a badge or supporting Legacy online.
