AWM REL32521

A circular silver badge with the words To all the Women of Australia followed by 2 bars, one bar with 3 stars and the second bar with 2 stars.

Ruby Maude Munro wore this female relative badge in recognition of her six sons, each of whom had enlisted for service during World War II. Four of her boys joined the RAAF and two the AIF. Five of the Munros survived the war, but Kelvin, who enlisted in 1939, was killed while acting as Master Bomber with No. 35 (Pathfinder) Squadron RAF on a raid over Germany in March 1945, just two months before the end of the war.
