About this product
Product Information
The dead and wounded of the 47th lay everywhere underfoot . With these words Charles Bean, Australia's Official War Historian, described the battlefield of Dernancourt on the morning of the 5th of April, 1918, strewn with the bodies of the Australian dead. It was the final tragic chapter in the story of the 47th Australian Infantry Battalion in the First World War. One of the shortest lived and most battle hardened of the 1st Australian Imperial Force's battalions, the 47th was formed in Egypt in 1916 and disbanded two years later having suffered one of the highest casualty rates of any Australian unit. Their story is remarkable for many reasons. Dogged by command and discipline troubles and bled white by the desperate attrition battles of 1916 and 1917, they fought on against a determined and skilful enemy in battles where the fortunes of war seemed stacked against them at every turn. Not only did they have the misfortune to be called into some of the A.I.F.'s most costly campaigns, chance often found them in the worst places within those battles. Though their story is one of almost unrelieved tragedy, it is also story of remarkable courage, endurance and heroism. It is the story of the 1st A.I.F. itself - punished, beaten, sometimes reviled for their indiscipline, they fought on - fewer, leaner and harder - until final victory was won. And at its end, in an extraordinary gesture of mateship, the remnants of the 47th Battalion reunited. Having been scattered to other units after their disbandment, the survivors gathered in Belgium for one last photo together. Only 73 remained.

The kind of seller who thinks it s A) Perfectly fine to nag a buyer for Feedback Revision just because the service and item was described as Neutral and they think it should be better and B) admits they are too lazy to test items fully ( in this case a 50 minute VHS tape ) and stated in a message all items are tested briefly and that their methods of testing a 35 year old tape manufactured 34 years ago would not meet customer standards expected purchasing from eBay. Packed well & sent promptly

ID: pianobatbooks - so dramatic! A) I asked you once if you would consider changing your positively written comment to a positive rated one - hardly nagging! B) All my tapes are tested - read the description. I said my testing method may not be up to YOUR standard as you seemingly critique every aspect of your purchase in great detail as shown in your feedback left for others.
