My great grandfather William Charles Bourne fought at lone pine and came out without serious physical injury he later went on to fight on the western Front untill the end of the war he must have been one tough bastard
I’d like to see Australia pay more attention to the battle of the Somme.. where we lost the most Australian casualties in WW1 I don’t think this battle is talked enough about. It seems to be all about Gallipoli
I'd agree same with other battles on the western Front like Airmens or the battle of Beersheba in Palestine I feel that we definitely focus on Gallipoli a little too much we should also pay more attention to the Australian contributions of WW2 most importantly the new guinea campaign also battles like Tobruk, Greece, Malta etc.
