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.

`LEST WE FORGET`
In 1946 the
2/23 Australian Infantry Battalion Association
(Albury`s Own),
adopted the children`s ward of the
Albury Base Hospital
as a memorial ward to honour those
who made the supreme sacrifice.
Since then, the Association has raised
many thousands of dollars.
In appreciation of their efforts,
this memorial plaque was unveiled on
30 November 1999 by
Lynda Summers BA., Grad Dip Pub Admin., GAIC, D.
Acting Chairperson,
Greater Murray Area Health Service Board.
