EP1 We're On A Long Trek Now Apr 25, 2001

Arriving too late for the succinct war in Sudan, Australia had a chance to prove themselves on the plains of South Africa in the Boer War. Naivety was lost in a conflict no-one could have foreseen.

EP2 Who’ll Come A Fighting the Kaiser With Me? May 02, 2001

The legend of ANZAC was born on the beaches of Gallipoli in 1915. An 8-month occupation in this area of Turkey delivered terrible horrors for our forces, but their loyalty and courage to the end will forever be remembered.

EP3 Mateship Was The Greatest Thing May 09, 2001

Every Australian was feeling the effects of war, from Lighthorsemen fighting a desert war with the Turks in Palestine, to our forces in France. Back home, the issue of conscription had divided the nation.

EP4 Here We Go Again May 16, 2001

World War II had begun, and were we keen to serve? We were still loyal to the Empire and had been hardened by our previous experiences, so... for Britain then.

EP5 The Thin Khaki Line May 23, 2001

Our troops were scattered all over. We were suffering heavy casualties to the Germans, and our troops endured the harrowing Kokoda Trail in South East Asia and were fighting the Japanese- until the Americans dropped the bomb.

EP6 The Forgotten War May 30, 2001

The least well known of all conflicts was probably the war on communism in Korea. This time, we were on a roll in terms of success, that is, until the Chinese became involved.

EP7 Trying Not to Remember Jun 06, 2001

Conscription was passed and a nation was divided. Civilians were protesting and our troops faced an enemy the likes of which they had never seen. The survivors return with scars that will never heal.

EP8 Faith Enough For All of Us Jun 13, 2001

How has our history affected us? Our peacekeeping involvements are detailed and Anzac Day is discussed. We are left with the question, " What have we done with the peace that was won for us?"
