Commemorative stories

We recognise and commemorate the service of Australians during wartime and peacekeeping operations. Significant anniversaries and special days are a good time for us to reflect on their experiences. Recently, this has included:

#VP75 Paths to Victory in the Second World War
3-nine-39 radio and video series to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the start of World War II
Women in War radio series on International Women’s Day
#1MS (1 Minute's Silence) on Remembrance Day
