Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

3rd Light Horse Field Ambulance Print Page 

The tree commemorates those who served with the 3rd Light Horse Field Ambulance during World War One. The tree was planted by Mr. R. C. Marshall on the 4th August 1934 and was No. 84 in the ballot.
Originally recruited at Melbourne in October 1914 to form part of the 2nd Light Horse Field Ambulance; when Military Order 575 of 1914 created the 3rd Light Horse Brigade, the unit became the 3rd Light Horse Field Ambulance.
