These 21 photographs were taken at Bones Day, an annual sports competition between the Army Survey Regiment and the RAAF School of Radio at Bendigo in the 1970s, probably all in 1972 as LTCOL Don Ridge was the CO in 1972. The two units took turns each year to host the event. The day competition usually comprised basketball, cricket, cross country, golf, sailing, squash, softball, tennis, touch football, rifle shooting, tug-of-war and volleyball. The “big bone” trophy comprising a large bone from a beast housed inside a wooden framed glass case, was awarded to the winner of the day competition. The evening competition often included darts, carpet bowls, hookey, quoits and billiards/snooker. The “little bone” (a mounted chicken bone) was the trophy awarded to the winner of the evening competition (reportedly taken from his plate by the RAAF OC at the initial competition as consolation for Army losing the day competition, but winning the evening competition). The 3-hour bus trip for the visiting unit on their return was typically very raucous, with the drinking continuing. The history of the Bones Day competition is best described in the booklet titled - Bones of Contention Souvenir Program. 1965.
