Summary

While Aboriginal people have been largely ignored or marginalised in national histories of war and service, they have remembered their involvement in defence service and the service of their relatives.

Our Mob Served presents a moving and little-known history of Aboriginal war time and defence service, told through the vivid oral histories and treasured family images of Aboriginal people.

This unique book shares lively and compelling stories of war, defence service and the impact on individuals, families and communities, sometimes for the first time.

Aboriginal people have not forgotten their involvement in the national histories of war and service.
