“My father was in the first world war, my brother was in the second world war and Korea. I have five uncles – six uncles – in the Second World War. One was killed in New Guinea just before the war finished.They were all discriminated. They weren’t allowed in to have a drink with their mates that they fought along side of. And even on Anzac Day, because you were an Aborigine you weren’t allowed in the pub to have a been. Fighting in jungles and deserts with your mates, all in together. And when you come back here, just nothing. A lot of white Australians got soldier settlement farms, not the case for Aboriginals.” Leonard Ogilvie
