The Last Post Ceremony is presented in the Commemorative area of the Australian War Memorial each day. The ceremony commemorates more than 102,000 Australians who have given their lives in war and other operations and whose names are recorded on the Roll of Honour. At each ceremony the story behind one of the names on the Roll of Honour is told. Hosted by Gerard Pratt, the story for this day was on (NX28792) Private William Joseph FOSTER, 2/2nd Casualty Clearing Station at 15th Australian General Hospital, Second World War, 1939-1945 and was read by Commander Phil Andrews.
