Adopt a Digger's First Months
It took many months and a great deal of research to create the database of diggers from the Sunshine Coast region. It would take a government department to do that for all of Australia! So we have decided to allow âoutside Sunshine Coastâ diggers to be added to the database as they come in. Let me know your thoughts on this. The historiansâ network is always active and I was directed to a website created by Sydney historian, Kim Phillips, about diggers who are buried or are commemorated at Gallipoli. If your digger was at Gallipoli you should have a look at this site http://www.spirits-of-gallipoli.com/
We will soon be able to search by Google within the site; this means that you can search by any keyword and it will be very fast. So you can search by battalion, surname, town name, ship name etc. It is still being aligned with Google which may take some time, so if you have trouble searching for a digger, use the Digger Database tab on top of the page for the time being.
