Australian Army soldiers marching along Macquarie Street, Sydney, 1914-1918

    A proud moment indeed. A moment to cherish for the soldiers and with their heads raised high......... marched off into the unknown Hell. Praise the Lord and praise the guys for their steadfastness in the face of absolute adversity. The spirit................. their spirit, lives on and will do so for eternity. There is no such thing and Guts and Glory. Just lots of guts.

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Thanks so much for alerting that to us quasymody. We've sent an enquiry through to the AWM for clarification :)

    beachcomber australia Thank you for your suggestion beachcomberaustralia. We also thought it may be the area around St Mary's Cathedral, where Hospital Road and Art Gallery Road meet.

    Good find - just in time for WW1 centenary. This was on Tuesday 18 August 1914.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    ps - I was completely wrong with the location (see above comments). It is as described it the blurb. GoogleMapsStreetView - goo.gl/maps/w3RxC . See the sandstone pillars. I wonder if Mr Hood? was on the verandah of the just-built (1914) Captain Cook Hotel - goo.gl/maps/aeeDi

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Ahhh!! well spotted! Thank you so much quasymody! :) You're on a roll. I think there's definitely a blog there, especially as they name a few who 'responded to the call'.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] It's interesting, I've just noticed these men appear to be holding instruments which would match with your assumption that 00024594 was taken on the same occasion. I'm thinking the man just beyond our 'Colonel' appears in the NLA article far right just on the edge of the photo. This could mean it was the same day?? Though not a given...

    [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] wow! Great work yet again Quasymody. I think there's another blog in that :) How can you even see the dog in the Mirror of Australia pic?! Surely it has to have been taken at the same time then...

    trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/105136983/10859188 - the Mirror of Australia, 11th November, 1916...this pic looks to have been taken on the same occasion...

    Also possibly the same occasion
