Women who served in the military but were invisible to those who commemorated the military are finally getting their rightful place at the nation's site of remembrance.
One of the members of the ruling council of the Australian War Memorial said that "the narrative had changed". Brave women who had served and been forgotten would be given prominence as the Memorial expands.
"There are so many, and those galleries provide a space to be able to much more deeply and richly explore the stories that shine a light on women's contribution," AWM council member and army veteran Susan Neuhaus said.
