SUMMARY:Lessons Learned?
DESCRIPTION:The successes or failures of prolonged military campaigns have often been decided by the health of the combat troops. \n  \nOn 20th February 1942\, Colonels H Fairley and I Mackerras wrote ‘when exposed to malaria in New Guinea over 50% of the Australian Force may be destroyed’. Malaria did devastate the force. The cause of this near-disaster and the superb research that eliminated the threat will be discussed by Professor Geoffrey Quail. \nPresenter: Professor Geoffrey Quail \nDate: Thursday 31 October\, midday \nLocation: Education Centre\, Shrine of Remembrance\nCost: $5\, free for Shrine Friends \nSupport the Shrine by becoming a Friend and access exclusive benefits such as invitations to exhibition launches and attend public programs for free.

SUMMARY:The Lost Boys: The untold stories of the under-age soldiers who fought in the First World War - By Paul Byrnes
DESCRIPTION:In the First World War of 1914–1918\, thousands of boys across Australia and New Zealand lied about their age\, forged a parent’s signature and left to fight on the other side of the world. Though some were as young as thirteen\, they soon found they could die as well as any man. Like Peter Pan’s lost boys\, they have remained forever young. These are their stories. \nAffirm PressRRP: $45ISBN: 9781925870503Hardback\, 368 pages220 x 180 mmMilitary History\nThis extraordinary book captures the incredible and previously untold stories of forty Anzac boys who fought in the First World War\, from Gallipoli to the Armistice. Featuring haunting images of the boys taken at training camps and behind the lines\, these tales are both heartbreaking and rousing\, full of daring\, ingenuity\, recklessness\, random horror and capricious luck. \nA unique perspective on the First World War\, The Lost Boys is military history made deeply personal\, a powerful homage to youthful bravery and a poignant reminder of the sacrifice of war.\nAbout the Author \nPaul Byrnes joined The Sydney Morning Herald in 1976\, reporting from various corners of the world for a decade\, before specialising as a feature writer and film critic. He was director of the Sydney Film Festival for ten years\, until 1998. In 2007\, he won the Pascall Prize\, Australia’s highest award for critical writing in the arts. This book is the result of a lifelong interest in the First World War. He lives in Australia and France. \nContact: Patrica Arkoudis\nPh: 03 8290 8008 \nEvent link:https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/the-lost-boys-tickets-71018336757

DESCRIPTION:The 2019 Chief of Army (CA) History Conference will be held on Thursday\, 28 November at the Australian Defence Force Academy’s Adams Auditorium. This year’s theme is ‘An Army of Influence’ and looks at our involvement in the region throughout Army’s history. \nBACKGROUND \nThe Chief of Army’s History Conference has traditionally been held annually since 1994 and has grown into one of the pre-eminent military history conferences in Australia. As it evolved\, the conference has attracted world class speakers from Australia and around the world to deliver the latest research on themes with relevance to either the history of\, or operational issues affecting\, the Australian Army. \nSPEAKERS AND THEME\nThis year’s conference theme is entitled ‘An Army of Influence: The Australian Army’s Connection with the Region. Speakers include:\nProfessor John Blaxland\, ANU\nColonel (Dr) John Connery\, Australian Army\nProfessor Peter Dean\, UWA\nProfessor David Horner\, ANU\nLieutenant Colonel (Dr) Dayton McCarthy\, Australian Army\nDr Tristan Moss\, UNSW (Canberra)\nColonel Graeme Sligo\, Australian Army\nProfessor Craig Stockings\, AWM\nSpeakers from the Papua New Guinea Defence Force and the Army of the Republic of Indonesia (TNI) to be confirmed. \nThe CA History Conference provides the opportunity for current serving personnel\, invited guests and the general public to hear world recognised experts in their fields speak on a range of historical issues and examples relevant to Army’s service. Where possible\, papers offer direct parallels with events the Australian Army has experienced\, or seek to provide an historical baseline for Army’s future planning by its next generation of leaders. The conference also provides Army with a foundation for understanding the military art as practiced by different nations through a number of conflicts. \nThe papers presented at each conference have reinforced that some problems are perennial\, and that it is better to arm oneself against repeating these mistakes by learning the lessons from the past. Army views this conference as an opportunity to use history to better educate and prepare its people for the challenges they may face in the future\, as well as to provide guiding principles from which to approach planning for future operational\, administrative or modernisation requirements. \nTICKETS\nDefence Personnel\, Defence APS and Invited Guests: The Australian Army History Unit invites Army members\, members of the ADF\, Defence APS and invited guests to take advantage of Defence-funded tickets to attend this year’s conference. Tickets can be booked at the Eventbrite website. Defence ID will be required at the conference to collect tickets.\nGeneral Public: Members of the general public are invited to purchase tickets from Eventbrite to attend the annual CA History Conference alongside serving personnel to both learn about aspects of the Australian Army’s history\, and hear about issues faced by armies the world over (albeit in an historical context). It is also extremely instructive in educating the public about how Government\, the Army and the community negotiate ambiguous and complex military outcomes\, both internally and externally. Public engagement with the conference aids in understanding and appreciating the issues facing Army\, as well as being an opportunity for all attendees to listen to the best scholars in the world present the findings of their latest research. Tickets for the public are $50.00 (plus small admin fee) at the Eventbrite website.
