In a distinctly original and captivating way, it brings together photographs, both old and new, ephemera and one hundred stories as it commemorates one hundred years since the outbreak of World War One. it shows how the terrible sacrifice of young Australians has reverberated across this country and through time, and how the memories still resonate in so many different ways, and in so many different stories. Selected for their unique design, their grandeur or their simplicity, the one hundred memorials have been arranged alphabetically and represent the diversity of memorials to the ANZAC spirit from each state and territory across the nation. world war 1914-1918-centennial celebrations, world war 1914-198-monuments-australia, world war 1914-1918-personal narratives, war memorials-australian, monuments-australia

Front and spine of dust jacket has a black and white photograph: sick sisters on Lemnos. Title and authors name in black and red print on front and spinenon-fictionThis book investigates the contradictions, paradoxes and anomalies which have arisen for those assigned the role of army nurse. Financial discrimination saw the female captain in charge of an operating theatre in Vietnam being paid less than a male corporal working with her. Guns have replaced brooches as part of the nurses' uniform, as "total war" increasingly makes a mockery of the distinction between combatants and non-combatants.military nursing-australia, australian army nursing service, nurses, nursing

These medallions, which belonged to Mervyn Thomas, were given in celebration of the 1953 Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Coronation authorities in the United Kingdom decided on a total number to be produced, then allocated a proportion to each of the Commonwealth countries and Crown dependencies and other possessions of the Crown. The award of the medals was then at the discretion of the government of each territory, which was left free to decide who was to be awarded a medal and why. This medallion is specific to the town of Castlemaine in Victoria which is noted on the Service Record of Mervyn Thomas.Two matching circular medallions with wire at top.Front: THE TOWN OF CASTLEMAINE / VIS NON TERRA SEO DEU EST Back: Effigy of Queen Elizabeth with crown facing right.
