At the end of August 1940 the Hired Military Transport Dunera, a boat carrying around 2,500 European male internees, the majority of which were Jewish, arrived on Australian shores after two arduous months at sea. Although many had made England their home, their German or Austrian background caused these men to be classified as ‘enemy aliens’ by the British Government and sent to Australia without their families. The ‘Dunera Boys’ were interned in camps at Tatura and Hay. Although some internees were released after two years because they possessed specific industry skills which would aid the nation, others were interned for the entire duration of the war. This collection brings together objects, personal effects and documents relating to the journey, internment and subsequent military service in the 8th regiment experienced by the ‘Dunera Boys’. Also included are artworks and poems created by the internees during their interment, which express the thoughts and feelings of the men and document the daily life in the camps. Velvet, silk, silk embroidery thread, cotton thread, silk cord, leather, cotton and wood

Johannes Oskar "Hans" Muhlhaus (centre front wearing dark shirt) with Raimond Kaufmann (front right wearing shorts) worked with Hans in England. Between them are Paul Wieting and/or Georg Erler. The man partly hidden between the rows is Walter Kiessling. Hans, an engineer, had been working in England since 1929, setting up and later managing a Manchester office of Siemens Schuckert GmbH which dealt with mining equipment. He later moved to Sheffield and in 1937 he met Nora, who he married in 1937. After the fall of France he and other people of German, Austrian and Italian origin were gathered up and interned in camps in Britain. On 2 July 1940 Hans was among 1200 German and Italian internees aboard the Arandora Star when it was torpedoed by German U Boat U-47; over 800 died in this incident which happened off the Irish coast. On 10 July he was sent to Australia aboard the Dunera, along with over 2500 internees. The voyage on the overcrowded ship was uncomfortable and difficult. Men who travelled on this ship became known as the Dunera Boys. During his period of internment in Tatura he taught English and engineering and kept up to date with mining engineering through books supplied by the Red Cross. Hans returned to Sheffield after the war but was not able to return to his previous job. He found employment at an engineering firm in Cornwall and stayed there until retirement. Hans Died in 1998.A group photograph of German internee taken at Tatura Camp 1. Black and white. The men are standing in front of a hut with another hut of to the left.
