... Montmorency/Eltham RSL Sub Branch Petrie Park 16 Mountain ...The slouch hat is an object strongly associated with Australian identity and was introduced into the Australian military in the second half of the 19th.

Memorabilia - Cup
... Montmorency/Eltham RSL Sub Branch Petrie Park 16 Mountain ...The Oakey Army Aviation Centre is a training facility formed in October 1943 at Oakey, Queensland. It was built with the purpose of providing a maintenance facility: the units would erect, repair and insect aircrafts and engines. At the end of the war in 1945, the depot was used to store surplus aircraft. In early 1946, the RAAF Station Oakey was disbanded and categorised ‘to be retained but not maintained’. Since then, the RAAF Station Oakey facilities have been used few times for some minor activities.
