The Australian War Memorial

On 11 November 1918, 11 o'clock, Western gun guns kept silence after four consecutive wars. The Allied Forces had a major blow to German invaders during the past four months. In November, the Germans called for a truce (interruption of battle) to ensure a peaceful solution. They accepted the terms of the ally equivalent to unconditional surrender

Eleven hours of November 11th are over many years after the war. The moment when the Western Front ceased hostilities by commemorating the people who died in the war became commonplace. Due to the conflict of this first contemporary world, more than 70 million people were mobilized, 9 to 13 million people died, up to one third of them did not know the tombs. The Allied forces chose this day and time to commemorate the victims of the war.

As part of the memorial ceremony of the new London Memorial, in celebration of the first anniversary of the 1919 ceasefire, we kept the silent for two minutes. Silence was made by Australian journalist Edward Honey who worked at Fleet Street. Almost at the same time, South African politicians made similar proposals to the British cabinet and approved the proposal. George V personally requested all members of the British Empire to suspend normal activities for two minutes during the ceasefire. "World massacres four years before the ceasefire, meaning the right victory of wings and freedom." Silence of 2 minutes was widely adopted, it became a central feature of the celebration anniversary memorial.

The second anniversary of the truce fight in 1920, the commemoration ceremony became more important when it became a funeral, and the remains of an unknown soldier came back from the battlefield of the western fight. At the Westminster Abbey in London and the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, unknown soldiers were awarded all military honors. The funeral in London attracted over 1 million people in the week to pay homage to the tombs of unknown soldiers. Most other allies adopted the tradition of burying unknown soldiers over the next decade.

After the end of the Second World War, the Australian and British governments changed their names to anniversaries. The day of armistice is no longer a day commemorating all the dead killed

In Australia, celebrating its 75th anniversary in 1993, the ceremonial ceremony came to attract the public's attention again. The remains of an unidentified Australian soldier unearthed from the military cemetery of the French First World War was buried in the memorial hall of the memorial hall. The anniversary was held at the same time in towns and cities across the country, finally being buried at 11:00 am, consistent with the traditional two minute silence. This ceremony touched the resonance throughout Australia and rebuilt the anniversary as an important day of the anniversary.

Four years later in 1997, Governor William Dean announced a declaration officially announcing November 11 as an anniversary and urged the whole of Australia to protect the silent one minute at 11 am on November 11 every year It was. Commemorate those who died or suffered in Australia. It is caused by all wars and armed conflict

There are many Australian scholars about their country's participation in the Second World War; this war has a good track record. However, most of these precious materials are held at the Australian War Memorial or the University of Australia, which is difficult for researchers living outside Australia. The official history of the Australian War was seen in the series of 22 volumes of Australia in 1939 - 45 years and is posted in the Australian War Memorial. This memorial foundation continues to digitize its collection and this initiative will provide international researchers with timely access to academic materials on that subject.
