On mobilisation, the Australian 4th Light Horse Regiment was originally destined to go to the Salisbury Plain UK for training. However the Australian troops were diverted to Egypt to defend the Suez Canal from a threat from Turkey. A camp was set up at Mena, near the Pyramids.Framed black & white photo of Mena Camp in wood frameMay your comradeship be as lasting as that still prevailing in our Regiment.

Patterson Lakes is a suburb in the City of Kingston that is built one kilometre upstream of the mouth of the Patterson River. The area is bordered by the Patterson River and Eel Race Drain which enters the Kananook Creek. The suburb consists predominantly of newer housing developments and the tidal canal system of the development joins Port Phillip Bay. Patterson Lakes and the Kananook Creek were previously part of the extensive Carrum Carrum Swamp. The area was once a source of fish and eels for the Mayone-Bulluk clan of the Bunurong people. Over time the area was drained and in 1973 investigations commenced into the development of a unique residential area that would be built adjacent to canals and waterways. It was originally proposed to be known as "Gladesville". The development would give the suburb's homeowners access to Port Phillip Bay "from their back door". Circa 1974, the area was rezoned from rural to residential and named Patterson Lakes. Development has been continuous since the 1970s with construction of residential housing, schools, shopping centres, marinas, a hotel and library.Laminated colour aerial photograph of the Carrum and Patterson Lakes region within City of Kingston. This 1993 image includes Patterson River Secondary College, Roy Dore Reserve, Kananook Creek and Nepean Highway. The railway line can be seen as it veers inland from Eel Race Road, Seaford. The section of Ocean Reef Drive and Palm Beach Drive in Patterson Lakes appears to be a recent development with many spare blocks and new houses under construction.Black typed lettering on white adhesive label: 31.1.93 Black typed lettering on white adhesive label: 27E/7140 31/1/93 12.55 pm Black typed lettering on white label: 7140 Yellow round adhesive label located on left sidepatterson lakes, seaford, kananook creek, carrum carrum swamp, canals and waterways
