Australian military involvement in nearly a century of conflicts.
Guided tours are provided by staff to small groups. Their collection
is amazing and very large, and every part of the collection deserves
a page worth of information. Fascinating relics, like a landing
boat from the Gallipolli Landing, or the gun off the famous German
raider SMS Emden. Also, a huge collection of guns and mortars that
were taken as trophies after WWI, and given to Australian towns
after the war in apperception for their contributions to the war
effort.

are included in their collection. Including the other Type A Midget
