Dawn Conlan discusses her family history of service, including that of her Great Uncle Maurice Wright who served in World War 2 and was held captive as a POW in Changi.
She has undertaken much family history research in recent years to discover this history of service that she was previously largely unaware of.
Dawn also speaks about her enthusiasm for projects such as Serving Our Country and the pride her mum took in attending Anzac Day parades.
