Description
Military – The Rising Sun Limited Edition Stamp & Medallion Collection
One of the mainsprings of an army is its esprit-de-corps – that spirt which gives a soldier purpose & the endurance to carry on when others might give up. In the pronged & bitter struggles of war, the Australian soldiers had this esprit-de-corps, and its focal point was a humble badge, The Rising Sun badge, worn on the up-turn brim of a slouch hat, typified the Sprit of ANZAC – the camaraderie of Australian soldiers to fight for Crown & the British Empire. The Australian Army carries on a tradition steeped in the core values of courage, initiative & teamwork. What binds these integral values together is the Rising Sun badge – one of the true icons of Australian history. While the Rising Sun badge has evolved over time, the soldier that wears the badge has maintained a proud tradition of service to the nation.
