better understand this horrific event and the impact it had on so many. This collection explores 127 men from the Department of Crown Lands and Survey and the Office of Titles who served in the Australian Imperial Force and the British Army during the First World War. Some of their names are familiar to us, either from Roll of Honour boards or from their work at the Department. Others will be new. In this collection, you’ll find the names of decorated commanders, famous battalions, and infamous battles. You’ll also find stories of great courage, sacrifice, remembrance of mates, and the quiet attention to duty. These young men, whatever their background, war service, or post war lives, deserve our remembrance not
