VETERANS affairs minister Dan Tehan has encouraged Australians to visit The Anzac Portal website after a recent renovation.
The Anzac Portal website aims to promote awareness of Australia’s wartime history.
Mr Tehan said the portal now contained information and educational resources spanning campaigns from the First World War to contemporary military and peacekeeping operations.
“The Anzac Portal is part of the Australian Government’s ongoing commitment to honour the service and sacrifice of the men and women who have served in defence of our nation,” Mr Tehan said.
“The website is a free, dedicated resource that all Australians can use to gain a better understanding of our wartime history.
“It is constantly being updated with personal interviews with veterans complemented by images from the Australia War Memorial and personal collections.”
The Anzac Portal contains resources for Anzac Centenary events, including posters and wartime snapshots, veterans’ stories and publications relevant to various commemorations, music downloads and sample commemorative speeches.
