Reception
Neil Jillet of the Age says in his capsule review that it "is an interesting compilation of new (color) and archival (black and white) film, and a reminder of how soon we forget those who helped Australia to victory." In the Canberra Times Philip Castle finishes "This excellent film, being shown appropriately around Anzac Day, might in a significant way record the service of the Fuzz-Wuzzy Angels, lest we forget."
