Afghanistan: The Australian story at the Australian War Memorial, Canberra, Australia

http://www.awm.gov.au/exhibitions/afghanistan-australian-story/

 

The war in Afghanistan and operations in the Middle East have engaged thousands of Australian men and women, both military and civilian, for over a decade.

According to the AWM, the ‘mission aims to assist the people of Afghanistan, but also to promote the security of the region, diminish the influence of terrorist groups, and create a safer global environment.’

Some of these experiences, set against the powerful imagery of a modern war, are told in this exhibition. Over time, the display will change and evolve as more veterans share their stories.
