This book commemorates the brave women and men who served in the Australian Defence Forces during World War II, and who now rest in peace or are memorialised at the Dunkeld Cemetery. Among those listed are members of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), the Australian Army, the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), the Volunteer Defence Corps (VDC), the Australian Women’s Army Service (AWAS), and the Australian Women’s Land Army. Not all of them saw active service overseas and of those who did, many became Prisoners of War, however without exception all of them put their lives on hold to willingly give their time to defend our shores and those of our allies in theatres of war from Europe to Darwin and throughout the Pacific.
