Fromelles story
I was very upset by the standard of production and hence respect paid to that sad story. Amateurish camerawork. Poor exposure, focus and framing. Use a tripod. There is some justification in sending a single reporter camera into a dangerous war zone but that war has been over for many years. Purely a money saving exercise. Imagine if the DNA testing had have been given to a secondary school science lab. A word to SBS management- If you can't produce professional programs then step aside.

Fromelles - The spirit remebered
My partner and I were in Fromelles earlier this year and were probably the last public visitors allowed onto the mass graves site...Our host, the site manager and we were reduced to tears, this place has the power to move emotions like no other. Just one comment, the British researcher didn't get it. This was far more than just one lost battle, it was a demonstration of the Australian spirit and the emergence of an independent nation. These brave men did not die in vain - lest we forget. David
