Minister for Veterans' Affairs, Warren Snowdon, today launched a new education resource that will help primary and secondary school students across Australia learn about our wartime history. Speaking at Stromlo High School in Canberra, Mr Snowdon said that all primary schools in Australia will receive "Forever yours: stories of wartime love and friendship", with secondary schools also receiving a teachers' guidebook, "We?ll meet again?Australian stories of love in wartime" later this month.
