This publication is
the first colour illustrated descriptive text covering the official
Australian War badges of World War 1 and World War 2.
These badges were awarded by the Government to
those who:
- Volunteered to join the overseas service
but who were denied enlistment for various reasons and who then wore the
badges on their civilian clothing to avoid receiving ridicule and even
white feathers from the general populace
- Actually served at home or overseas during
these conflicts, and to;
- Female relatives of those who had served,
or were serving, or had lost their life as a result of that service.
For those who hold badges for which no
details are known, reference is also made to the method of obtaining
information on the recipient of the badge |
| This book is
available from the Army Museum of Western Australia for $45 plus $3
packaging and postage (within Australia).
(Please make out any cheques or postal orders to The Army
Museum of WA Foundation) |
