About this audio guide
This guide to the State War Memorial in Perth's Kings Park follows the roll of honour cut into its crypt, from the First World War's Gallipoli generation through Korea, Malaya and Vietnam. It traces where that list quietly stops, and the decades Western Australians kept dying in uniform after it did. You will hear about General Talbot Hobbs's nineteen twenty-nine design and the Queen's visit to light its Flame of Remembrance.
