Noon Today, Black Buffalo: A Tribute to the 2/40th 4

Pete Hay: At noon today, the anniversary of the battalion’s capture, some of us will gather at the Black Buffalo in North Hobart to pay tribute to the few who remain. If you have a connection with the 2/40th you should come along. The men of the 2/40th may not live as prominently in the Tasmanian imagination as they deserve to be, but they merit homage, and they merit remembrance. Pete Hay, Mercury: And they kept silent on their return
