Asian ANZACS
>> Saturday, March 27, 2010
Just doing some research on Asian ANZACS for my Project.
Quite difficult to find information out there on this interesting part of Australia's War History, so every little bit counts for a lot.
I've compiled a list of links to online sources that I've found so far.
- Forgotten Heroes - post from 'the tigers mouth' - lists several notable Chinese-Australian Soldiers who served Australian in World War 1
- Caleb Shang entry in the Australian Dictionary of Biography
- Chinese Australian Exservicemen Database - from the CHAF (Chinese Heritage of Australian Federation) website, a project from La Trobe University.
One particular Chinese ANZAC I have been focusing on is Caleb Shang. Below are the links to d¡
- Caleb Shang Embarkation Roll - from Australian War Memorial Records
- List of Honours and Awards recommended for and received by Caleb
- Caleb James Shang's service record
- Sidney Waugh Shang's service record
Big thanks to Yuey who's kindly passed on some information and resources he has found. His blog, Asians Down Under has been quite an inspiration and definitely worth a look.
