Every year, Battle for Australia Day is commemorated on the first Wednesday of September to commemorate the Australian servicepeople who served on Australia’s home front and in crucial battles during the Second World War, such as the Battle of Coreal Sea, Kokoda Trail and Milne Bay.

The significance of the first Wednesday in September aligns with the Allied forces victor at the Battle of Milne Bay, which marked the first defeat over Japanese forces.

Today we pay tribute to the men and women who served at sea, in the skies, or on the mainland to protect Australia during the Second World War; their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Lest we forget.

If you have seen and are wondering why we are flying our Australian Flag, Naval Ensign and Air Force Ensign, it is for Victory in the Pacific Day (VP Day). August 15th, marks Japan's unconditional surrender in 1945 and the official end of World War II.

Please take a moment to remember what it must have been like for those men and women serving at the time, and what this day 81 years ago, must have meant to them.

Lest We Forget.

Lest We Forget.

Whatever you may be doing this week, we do hope that you will spare a moment to think about what was happening in the Middle East 85 years ago.

As the guns began firing, who would have thought that for the next 242 days the gallant diggers, occupying a ‘ring of steel’, would deny the advance of the previously undefeated and all-conquering Afrika Korps. The Rats of Tobruk, enduring the most punishing of conditions, never entertained the idea of retreat or surrender.

“The sands neither of the desert nor of time will obscure the splendid achievement of the men of Tobruk. Their real monument is their name, and their most honoured resting place is in the grateful hearts of their fellow men.” Chester Wilmot

We know that other organisations around Australia are commemorating the commencement of the siege in different ways and we wish them all the best with their events. For those closer to home, we would love to see you on Sunday at Tobruk House at 11.00.
