    | 2019 PREMIER’S ANZAC SPIRIT SCHOOL PRIZE ENTRY | LIEUTENTANT W.O. JOSE Shreyas Khanna Year 10 Student An excerpt from ‘Dulce decorum est, pro patria mori’ by Kenneth Scott “…Home, school, and country, all have been his care, His pride, his daily joy, his life, his soul: Now can the soul that shed such influence there Augment its power while endless aeons roll One of God’s saints has found his right abode…”. K.S Scott, ‘Dulce decorum est, pro patria mori’, 1917 The Latin words, ‘Dulce decorum est, pro patria mori’ are most commonly interpreted as ‘It is sweet and proper to die for one’s country’. This phrase is not an unusual reference to World War I as it appears in numerous poems, as does it on our school’s emblem [see Figure 1]. This above excerpt is written in honour of Lieutenant Wilfrid Oswald Jose, an old scholar of St Peter’s College. The latter of Wilfrid’s service in World War I is situated in northern France. In early 1916, the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) and other divisions joined the British Army in France and Belgium, at last arriving at the major battle theatre of war. Here on the Western Front, [1] terrible years of sacrifice and bloodshed was only to come. Figure 1: Our school emblem. Jose was born in Ningbo, China on 25th March 1895 to Reverend George Herbert Jose and Clara Ellen Jose-[1].

  • Your Virtual Visit
    YOUR VIRTUAL VISIT - 61 TO THE AUSTRALIAN ARMY MUSEUM OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA Throughout 2021, the Virtual Visit series will be continuing to present interesting features from the collection and their background stories. The Australian Army Museum of Western Australia is now open four days per week, Wednesday through Friday plus Sunday. Current COVID19 protocols including contact tracing will apply. Battle of the Somme - 1 July 1916 The first day of fighting of the Battle of the Somme on 1 July 1916 was the costliest in British military history. Of 57,470 casualties, there were 19,240 killed. The Battle continued for 141 days resulting in an estimated 420,000 British casualties, 200,000 French and 500,000 German. The Somme, like Verdun for the French, has assumed a prominent place in the popular memory of British military history. For many, it has come to represent the loss and apparent futility of the War and war. The reality of almost 20,000 deaths on one day, in one coordinated assault is difficult to imagine. If however, 20,000 soldiers were to march in single file from Blackboy Hill Camp to the Western Australian State War Memorial, the first digger would be arriving at the Memorial before the last stepped off from Blackboy Hill. The Australian experience of the Battle of the Somme is best encapsulated by the portion designated the Battle of Pozières (23 July – 3 September 1916). The costly fighting of that segment ended with British possession of the plateau north and east of Pozieres, in a position to menace the German bastion of Thiepval.

  • SUPREME COURT the Supreme Court Is a Superior Court of Record
    SUPREME COURT The Supreme Court is a superior court of record, having jurisdiction over the ACT and Jervis Bay Territory, and also the Australian Antarctic Territory and Heard Island and McDonald Islands. It has unlimited first instance jurisdiction in civil and criminal matters and hears appeals from the Magistrates Court. The Court is empowered to sit in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Hobart, Darwin and Jervis Bay as well as Canberra, the principal seat of the Court. The Court is usually constituted by one judge sifting without a jury, but certain matters to do with the admission or conduct of legal practitioners are heard by three judges and trials on indictment are heard before a judge and jury. HISTORY OF THE SUPREME COURT In 1909 the Federal Capital Territory (as the Australian Capital Territory was then called) was surrendered by New South Wales to the Commonwealth. It was then enacted by Federal Parliament that the High Court of Australia should have until otherwise provided, the jurisdiction formerly exercised by the Supreme Court of New South Wales over the Territory, and the High Court was the Superior Court for the Territory until 1933. That year saw the Supreme Court of the Australian Capital Territory established by statute, and the first sittings of the Court were held on 12 February 1934, at Acton House, when Mr. Justice lukin presided. Early in 1935 the Supreme Court moved to Hotel Acton and; in January 1941 to the Patents Building, Parkes. The first siftings of the Supreme Court in the present building were held on May 9, 1963.

  • Propaganda and Military Celebrity in First World War Australia
    THE ENDURING IMPACT OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR A collection of perspectives Edited by Gail Romano and Kingsley Baird The Politics of Heroism: Propaganda and Military Celebrity in First World War Australia Bryce Abraham Australian War Memorial Abstract Afghanistan veteran Ben Roberts-Smith is one of the most well-known faces of modern conflict in Australia. The decorated special forces soldier is frequently at the forefront of commemorative initiatives, has become a spokesman for health and sport, and is popularly portrayed as the embodiment of the modern ‘Anzac’. But Roberts-Smith’s social currency as a hero is not a recent phenomenon. It has its origins in 1917, when decorated soldiers were first used to advertise the war effort. This was a tumultuous year for Australians deeply embroiled in the First World War. A failed conscription plebiscite—and another looming—and increasing devastation on the battlefield had led to a growing sense of war weariness. Amidst this discontent, the State Parliamentary Recruiting Committee of Victoria launched the Sportsmen’s Thousand, an army recruitment initiative designed to encourage the enlistment of athletic men. The posters released for the campaign featured a portrait of a fit, young uniformed man—Lieutenant Albert Jacka, an accomplished sportsman and decorated ‘war hero’. The Sportsmen’s Thousand used Jacka to invoke the connection between masculinity and heroism by suggesting that talent on the sports field would translate to prowess on the field of battle, just as it had for Jacka. This article explores how ‘heroes’ like Jacka were increasingly used in Australian war propaganda and recruitment initiatives from 1917 to inspire enlistment and promote a sense of loyalty to the war effort.

  • 1St Anzac Corps and the Battle of Pozières Ridge, 1916
    1st Anzac Corps and the Battle of Pozières Ridge, 1916 Meleah Elizabeth Hampton Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy University of Adelaide Department of History April 2014 i Abstract The first major action of the 1st Anzac Corps on the Western Front was the Battle of Pozières Ridge, which was conducted from 23 July to 3 September 1916. During this time the three divisions of 1st Anzac Corps rotated in and out of the line twice, each time conducting one or more offensive operations against heavily-defended German positions. At its conclusion, the fighting around Pozières and Mouquet Farm had to its record a very high casualty rate for only the most modest of territorial gains. This thesis examines the series of operations conducted by 1st Anzac Corps during the six weeks of the Battle of Pozières Ridge. These operations are more representative of the Somme than the large attacks like the ill-fated first day or the night attacks of 14-15 July. On any given day during the Battle of the Somme only a small percentage of the line was engaged in fighting the enemy – almost invariably in the same kind of limited, set-piece attacks made by 1st Anzac Corps at Pozières and Mouquet Farm. The particular focus of this thesis is on the agency of mid to low levels of command in the military hierarchy during this battle. Detailed reports, orders and message of the battle survive in the archives in the Australian War Memorial which are in so many cases simply unavailable for other contemporary British or Dominion formations.
