There are some good #NavalHistory photos in here. CAPT James Buchanan, RAN, was in charge of one of the three Allied naval brigades that first went ashore in Japan after the surrender, and was the first Australian to enter Japan after the armistice, on (I think) 30 Aug 1945.
The Australian War Memorial is marking the 80th anniversary of the end of #WWII in a variety of ways, including with free author talks. First up is the award winning @kristenauthor.bsky.social!
