"At a mile distant their thousand hooves were stuttering thunder, coming at a rate that frightened a man - they were an awe inspiring sight, galloping through the red haze - knee to knee and horse to horse - the dying sun glinting on bayonet points..." Trooper Ion Idriess

The Australian Light Horse Studies Centre aims to present an accurate history as chroniclers of early Australian military developments from 1899 to 1920.

The Australian Light Horse Studies Centre site holds over 12,000 entries and is growing daily.

Australian Service Personnel

Photograph Albums

"WHAT ABOUT IT, JACK?", Service Stories, Album Contents

 

Those were the Days!

 

The following album contains extracts from edited by a journalist only known by the sobriquet of "Non Com.". Each week, his Red Page, page 2 appeared in the Western Mail every Thursday during 1933. From these contributions, authentic stories of the Australian experience during the Boer War and Great War have been extracted. Each article has been presented at a specific photographic entry with a transcription of the story following afterwards. In addition, where it was felt necessary, articles have had explanatory notes attached to them so to place them into context and make them more intelligible to the reader. Some have required extensive amounts of additional information while other items stand alone since they were just yarns told and retold like urban legends. All the items add something to our understanding of the men involved in the conflicts, both Boer War and Great War.

The articlers were extracted from Western Mail, 1933, p. 2.

From the Desert Column Forum

The items listed below were considerably expanded on the Desert Column Forum to accept additional information regarding the various topics. These entries have been added as a distinct "desert-column" link beneath the Album entry.
