3rd Divisional Train Army Service CorpsPrint Page
A tree commemorates those who served with the 3rd Divisional Train Army Service Corps during World War One. The tree was planted in 1934 and was No. 20 in the ballot.
Division (and Brigade) Trains were logistic support and supply units under the command of the Division to which its numeric designator corresponded.
One of the most picturesque ceremonies yet held at the Shrine of Remembrance will take place on Saturday, 4th August, when nearly 100 trees will be planted along the main approaches - on the city side. Each tree will represent a Victorian unit or association, and each will be planted by a representative of the unit concerned after a brief, address at 3 p.m. by the chairman of the shrine trustees (Sir H. Chauvel) at the intersection of the main approach and Government House drive. The position of the trees for each unit was selected by ballot.
Age (Melbourne), 24 July 1934.
