100 YEARS AGO 1918-2018 At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the Great War ends. At 5:00am that morning, Germany, bereft of manpower and supplies and faced with imminent invasion, signed an armistice agreement with the Allies in a railroad car outside Compiegne, France. The First World War left nine million soldiers dead and twenty one million wounded. With Germany, Russia, Austria-Hungary, France and Great Britain each losing nearly a million lives. In addition, at least five million civilians died from disease, starvation or exposure. For Australia, the First World War remains the costliest conflict in terms of deaths and casualties. From a population of fewer than five million, 416,809 men enlisted of whom more than 60,000 were killed and 156,000 wounded, gassed or taken prisoner. The Sunshine Return Soldiers League, Sunshine and District Historical Society and Brimbank City Council have partnered to plant eleven Quercus robus ‘fastigiata’ in Kevin Wheelahan Gardens along the Devonshire Road edge to commemorate the ending of the First World War 100 years ago. LEST WE FORGET.
Followers of @sublurb will vouch that Kim has an amazing eye for 20th-century architectural gems. Brimbank is home to *so many* of these that we've asked her to be our guest instagrammer. Over the next few weeks we'll be showcasing the cute, the quirky, the cool and kitsch of the #westside, like this prize frontage in #Sunshine. Is it late Art Deco or Mid-century modern? Keep an eye out for our @sublurb feature pics and let us know what you love about your local streetscapes! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #WeAreBrimbank #Sunshine #artdecoaustralia #architechture #midcentury #mid #australia #retro @mammaknowswest @dyobmelbourne @thewestsider @eatdrinkwestside #vintage
