Historical information

In November 1914, the 67th (Bendigo) Infantry C.M.F. were called up for full time service to guard the heads at Port Philip.
The Lord Mayor, Cr Beebe, noted the Battalion did not have their own "colours" so he promised to have one made. This was done, then the "Colour" of the 67th Bendigo Infantry was presented to the Battalion in Bendigo, April 1915.
The flag or colour is held in the Bendigo Military Museum, along with two Union Jacks from the Boer War.
