IN THE lead-up to Remembrance Day, Australia Post pays tribute to Australian women, past and present, and their contribution during times of war.
The A Century of Service: Women in War stamp issue is the fourth in a series commemorating a century since World War 1.
Prior to and including WWI, the involvement of women in conflict zones was almost entirely limited to nursing.
In WWII, women served in the nursing corps of the navy, army and air force, with other roles also open to women, including the Women's Land Army and the Women's Auxiliary Australian Air Force.
The five domestic base rate ($1) stamps are designed by Stacey Zass of Page 12 Design.
We have a stamp pack to give away.
