SBS Yiddish report with Alex Dafner. The Australian Jewish community commemorated ANZAC Day on the 25th April and a special event was held at the Sydney Jewish Museum to honour the more than 7,000 Jewish servicemen and women who served in the Australian forces over the past 120 years. The Jewish military historian Peter Allen is on a mission to correct the inscriptions on the graves of some of the Australian Jewish combatants whose service he has researched and whose headstones record an incorrect name or religion. A Perth antiques auction house auctioned off some personal belongings, purported to have belonged to Adolf Hitler, which raised objections from two Jewish men who were escorted from the premises and revived calls to ban the sale of Nazi era memorabilia in Australia.
