    Not all who served were model soldiers. Perhaps many have seen the WW1 photo. of a digger in a German cap surrounded by german souvenirs. None other than the incorrigible Barney Hines.

    Private John Hines, 1873-1958.

    Military activity in the colonial period, 1788-1901 EDIT. The first full time military unit to be raised in Australia may be a surprise. It was the bodyguard to Governor King, and consisted of six ex convicts.

    The Menin Gate at midnight. No one can stand in front of the original, and not be moved. EDIT. 54,000 allied soldiers have no known grave. 6,000 Australians among them.
