Aboriginal troops recognised
It was last year that, for the first time ever, some members of the local Aboriginal community had a special service to commemorate their community’s involvement in the many wars Australian troops have fought in writes Trevor Davies in the South Sydney Herald February 2007 Have You Heard Column.
It was a very moving service that gave due recognition to Aboriginal diggers. Organiser, Pastor Ray Minniecon, and the local Redfern RSL, now want to see an Aboriginal War Memorial in Hyde Park. As well as this, Anzac Day March organisers are hoping to have an Aboriginal component. A bloody good idea!
