The memo of understanding that AFA (Vic) has with the Australian Air Force Cadets (AAFC) has been revised; AFA provides occasional Air Force-specific assistance and some minor financial support to 4 Wing AAFC. The AAFC is an important avenue of sourcing Air Force recruits with many current and former senior airmen and women having their interest kindled through the cadets. 2. Max McGregor is compiling a Schedule of Events that will appear on the website. Max will be contacting branches in the near future to encourage branches to add details of their events into the Schedule. This way, there will be a schedule that will identify the activities being carried out by branches Victoria-wide. 3. President Carl Schiller is developing a Welfare policy to clarify the Welfare function within AFA (Vic). When the policy is established, Carl will be seeking a meeting with branch Welfare Officers to explain the policy and explain how crucial the duties of the network of Welfare Officers are to AFA members’ well-being. 4. The Care Parcel program is about to start up again – Di Hoopert and John McCrystal will once again be leading the team of packers. Last year’s Care Parcel program received lots of appreciative comment from the deployed recipients. Whilst the program is now a national program, Victoria continues to lead this initiative. 5. Tony Pilli advises that books in the library at the AFA office are available for borrowing. He will be advising the appropriate borrowing procedures in the near future, and asks anyone who has borrowed books in the past and has forgotten to return them, to please return them as soon as possible. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ATC/AAFC Newsletter June 2017 Page 2 AAFC News 4 Wing Annual Parade and Competitions - 20 May 2017 Congratulations to the following Cadets, Staff and SQN Teams 1st Drill competition 401SQN Surrey Hills. 2nd Drill competition 402SQN Watsonia.

He was 96 years. http://www.abc.net.au/radio/sydney/programs/breakfast/peter- isaacson-flew-a-bomber-plane-under-the-sydney-harbour- brid/8433442 Peter Isaacson Peter Stuart Isaacson, AM, DFC, AFC, DFM (31 July 1920 – 7 April 2017) was an Australian publisher and decorated military pilot. Peter Isaacson grew up in Melbourne. He joined the RAAF in 1940. Following his stint in Bomber Command, he became well known in Australia for his tours in the Avro Lancaster Q-for-Queenie to promote the sale of war loans and, in particular, for flying his plane under the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1943. He transferred to the RAAF Reserve after the war, retiring as a Wing Commander in 1969. From 1956 he served as a Trustee, Chairman, and finally Life Governor of the Victorian Shrine of Remembrance. In 1991 he was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia for his publishing and community work. Peter Isaacson was born in London on 31 July 1920. His parents moved to Australia with him when he was six years old. On 8 December 1940, the nineteen-year-old Isaacson enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force. After completing his training in Australia and Canada, he was posted to the United Kingdom and joined No. 460 Squadron RAAF, as a Sergeant pilot. Operating Vickers Wellington medium bombers, No. 460 Squadron had been raised under provisions of the Empire Air Training Scheme and was one of a number of nominally Australian formations taking part in RAF Bomber Command's strategic air campaign against Germany. The squadron commenced operations in March 1942 and participated in 1,000- bomber raids against Cologne, Essen and Bremen in May and June. It converted to Avro Lancaster heavy bombers in October. Isaacson was awarded the Distinguished Flying Medal on 6 November 1942 for "many successful night attacks on the enemy" with No. 460 Squadron. The following month his Lancaster was damaged by a Junkers Ju 88 night fighter after a raid on Munich. Commissioned as a Pilot Officer, Isaacson was subsequently posted to No. 156 Squadron RAF. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross on 30 March 1943 for his actions during a raid on Berlin. His citation, promulgated in the London Gazette, read: One night in March 1943, this officer was detailed for an attack on Berlin. Following the attack and while still over the target area, his aircraft was hit by anti-aircraft fire and severely damaged.

Bornholt AM (Retd) (Presiding Member) Mr G. Mowbray Hearing Date 10 October 2016 DECISION On 14 October 2016 the Tribunal decided to affirm the decision of the Directorate of Honours and Awards of the Department of Defence that Flight Lieutenant Michael Dormer Delaney is not eligible for the award of the Pacific Star. CATCHWORDS DEFENCE AWARD – Pacific Star LEGISLATION Defence Act 1903 – ss 110T, 110V, 110VA, and 110VB(2) Defence Force Regulations 1952 - Reg 93C Commonwealth of Australia, Summary of Conditions of Award of the Campaign Stars, the Defence Medal and the War Medal, for Service in the War 1939-45 – December 1948 REASONS FOR DECISION Introduction 1. On 9 June 2015 Mr Roger Delaney (Mr Delaney) made application to the Directorate of Honours and Awards of the Department of Defence (the Directorate) requesting a full medal review of his late father’s eligibility for Defence medals in particular the Pacific Star.1 He claimed that his father Flight Lieutenant Michael Dormer Delaney (Flight Lieutenant Delaney) was a crew member aboard Lancaster ‘Q for Queenie’ when it made a ‘dangerous flight across the Pacific’ to Australia in 1943 and as a result he should be eligible for the award of the Pacific Star. 2. The Directorate determined that Flight Lieutenant Delaney was not eligible for the award of the Pacific Star as there was no evidence that the flight ‘was classified as an operational sortie against the enemy’ or that he ‘flew one operational sortie against the enemy into the qualifying areas for the Pacific Star’ or that he ‘landed at least three times in the qualifying areas for the Pacific Star while on transport and ferrying duties’.2 On 31 March 2016 Mr Delaney applied to the Tribunal for a review of the decision to deny his father the Pacific Star.3 Tribunal Jurisdiction 3.

  • The Empire Air Training Scheme: Identity, Empire and Memory
    The Empire Air Training Scheme: Identity, Empire and Memory Suzanne Jillian Evans Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2010 Department of Historical Studies The University of Melbourne Produced on Archival Quality Paper Abstract This thesis charts the change in images surrounding the institution of the Empire Air Training Scheme (EATS) in both the Australian national narrative and individual accounts. Formed in response to the demands of aerial warfare in 1939, EATS was embedded in a cultural environment of Australian Empire relationships, masculinity and the technology of flight. In the collective narrative of the early war years EATS was proclaimed as the greatest sign of unity and Empire loyalty, yet in the decades following the end of the war it is difficult to discover any mention of the Scheme, and in the twenty-first century it no longer holds a place in Australian collective memory. The purpose of this thesis is twofold. The first purpose is to provide reasons for the marginalization of EATS in the national narrative. While numerous negative aspects emerged to diminish recognition of the Scheme, I argue, two major influences worked to delete EATS from the Australian story namely, the decline of the position of Empire within the Australian context where EATS became an uncomfortable reminder of previous subservience to Britain, and, the redefining of the Anzac myth, as a central theme in Australian nationalism, which would not allow inclusion of the image of the elite airman Entwined with the collective image is the second purpose of this thesis.
