Afghanistan: The Australian Story

The people behind the Australian War Memorial have crafted this online collection to tell the story of some of the Australians who have served in the war in Afghanistan. As the site notes, these service men and women “have built schools, roads, and hospitals. They have mentored the fledgling army of a new, democratic nation.” The site explores their experiences through maps, ephemera, and video interviews. In the On Display area, visitors can look over hundreds of images that tell this complex story, including those of military vehicles, new roadbuilding projects, and much more. Visitors can also search the items by theme and place. The Video Interviews contain several dozen interviews with chaplains, commanders, and others who have been out on the front lines of duty. Three very helpful maps of the region are also available as part of this unique collection.
