SUMMARY:Aftermath: Australia after the Great War.
DESCRIPTION:When the last shots were fired on 11th November\, 1918 and the Great War came to an end it was of course not the end. \n \n \nThe consequences and the fallout from the four years of unprecedented carnage were only beginning; the effects on the nations and the people of the world would play out over many years to come. Empires crumbled\, national boundaries were re-drawn and in international affairs the seeds of the next global conflict were being sown. These broad-scale effects were being seen in Australia but we were also affected significantly at a personal level. So many young men were killed or seriously disabled that there would not have been a family in Australia who was not affected in some way by this nation-wide bereavement. \nOn Saturday\, 6th April 2019\, Military History and Heritage Victoria will hold a conference to explore the effects of the war and its aftermath on Australia at a national level and on the Australian people at a personal level. We will hear papers on the repatriation of the AIF from Europe and the Middle East; the impact on Australia’s relations with the world; the effects on Australian society; the soldier settlement scheme; the work of the Repatriation Commission and the heart-breaking efforts of bereaved families to find information about killed or missing loved ones. All these and other topics will be integrated in a key note address that will draw together all that has affected Australia in the aftermath of the Great War and help us to understand how it has continued to affect us even to the present. \nThere will be a panel of eminent speakers who are well credentialed in their fields and will bring a high level of interest and authority to the conference deliberations. \nFurther details and the conference program can be downloaded here. \nTo register and book your ticket click here \nMHHV Members and Concession card holders $50.00 \nGeneral Admission $75.00

SUMMARY:Sir John Monash : a personal view
DESCRIPTION:Waverley Historical Society invites you to an afternoon with Professor Bill Brown as he presents his talk… “Sir John Monash : a personal view” \nDate: Wed 24th April\, 2pm Venue : Waverley Historical Society\, 41 Miller Cres. Mt Waverley… \nWe are above the library and up the stairs\, or take the lift on the left once you have entered the library foyer. \nPlease bring some afternoon tea or a gold coin donation. \nJohn Monash was an engineer\, a lawyer\, leader of the Australian Corps in France in 1918 and founder of the SEC. Both Ted Baillieu (former Premier of Victoria) and Roland Perry (the author of “MONASH – the Outsider who Won a War”) argue that Sir John was the greatest Australian ever. Professor Bill Brown will relate some interesting facts about Sir John’s life. \nBill Brown was a student at the University of Melbourne where he graduated with an Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical Engineering) in 1960. While working on his Master of Engineering Science he was awarded a Commonwealth Scholarship to undertake a PhD at Queen’s University\, Belfast. Returning to Melbourne in 1964\, he was appointed Lecturer in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Monash University. In 1967 he became Senior Lecturer\, and then Associate Professor in 1974. Brown’s research interests were in control systems; initially the theory of computer control and then the application of computer control in the bioengineering area. Brown was heavily involved in the establishment of a number of major centres in the department as well as the negotiations related to the amalgamation with the Chisholm Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Unconquered - Our Wounded Warriors - Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Unconquered: Our Wounded Warriors tells the remarkable story of a group of men and women from Australia and New Zealand who fought and conquered extraordinary challenges from the battlefield to the sporting arena. These veterans of the Army\, Navy and Air Force served their country in campaigns from Somalia to Afghanistan and the multitude of conflicts in between\, and share the common scars of their service\, both apparent and invisible. \nFor these men and women\, now confronting the trials of daily life\, the Invictus Games provided a further challenge\, a chance to test their mettle in the sporting arena representing the country for which they had fought. ‘Invictus’ is the Latin word for ‘unconquered’ or ‘undefeated’ — a perfect description of these veterans who now fight their own personal battles. Through the power of sport\, they have proven that they can overcome the mental and physical trauma\ninflicted by their service. This beautifully illustrated volume allows us to share their story of service\, sacrifice and courage\, and gain an insight into their dogged determination to triumph in the face of adversity. \nUnconquered: Our Wounded Warriors is a deeply personal and human account of the trauma of armed conflict and the suffering that continues long after the sounds of battle have died away. It highlights the power of the individual to overcome fear\, wounds both mental and physical\, and lifelong disability and inspires those of us who have never served to cope with our own challenges. These are stories of courage pure and simple and of the men and women who defied the odds to remain unconquered.

SUMMARY:Dusted Off
DESCRIPTION:The National Vietnam Veterans Museum is proud to present the show\, Dusted Off which is as much about Vietnam as it is about family. \nIt is as much about war as it is about love. It is as much a story of one man and one family\, as it is the story of all our young men\, who fight anywhere and return home to pick up the pieces. \nActor\, musician and singer/songwriter Brett Hunt brings to the stage with alacrity and passion\, the story of his family and his father Frank Hunt – the eponymous Frankie who ‘kicked the mine the day man landed on the moon’. Just as in John Schuman’s I Was Only 19\, Frank Hunt in Dusted Off is an everyman\, and this one-man play\, through music and monologue\, explores the legacies of war\, of post-traumatic stress\, and of a family’s survival and redemption through intergenerational trauma. \nIt is not a case for war\, nor a glorification\, nor a regret. It is a universal exploration of a young veteran’s motivations\, injuries and efforts to keep a family together through indescribably tough circumstances. It is a tale of generations of veterans\, and Brett’s birthright to tell\, as a son\, grandson and great grandson of men who fought. Described as a troubadour\, a journeyman\, and a keeper of the flame\, Brett is fundamentally a storyteller. The stories he tells are gripping and authentic. \nWith soundscape and script\, Dusted Off is an enthralling and uplifting one act play that will take you on a journey – one that will never be forgotten. \nCome along to the Museum on Saturday 27 April to be enthralled by this fascinating show. Bryan Dawe will be MC for the evening. \nTicket prices are $35 and $30 concession and include a light supper after the show where you can meet Brett and Bryan.\nTickets must be bought online at: https://www.trybooking.com/BAKUJ
