An Innovative Memorial in a Stunning Setting
Hawker War Memorial的点评
点评：Hawker is the gateway to the central Flinders Ranges and Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park with stunning views to the north. The War Memorial takes the opportunity to use views in making this memorial one to remember. It is open, spacious, maintained and well organised.
Infosignage abounds relating the local’s story in times of war. One group this is often forgotten is the local women. I was impressed that a plaque honours the local CWA members who prepared parcels of woollen goods prior to the men departing and then continuing to send parcels on a regular roster during the war period. The other moving aspect was the lone cross with a helmet slung over to memorialise Australians who lay in unmarked graves.
The sculptures through the area have a rustic touch adding to overall Australiana feel of the memorial. Well done Hawker in an outstanding innovative memorial. The Australia Army field gun on display is a replica used in the “The Lighthorsemen” a 1987 movie that was filmed locally.
It is worth an hour or so to wander through and join the locals in their thanks.

翻译：霍克是通往弗林德斯山脉中部和伊卡拉-弗林德斯山脉国家公园的门户，北面的景色令人叹为观止。战争纪念馆利用景观使这座纪念馆成为令人难忘的纪念馆。它开放、宽敞、维护良好且组织有序。
信息标牌上随处可见当地人在战争时期的故事。一个经常被遗忘的群体是当地妇女。令我印象深刻的是，有一块牌匾纪念当地的 CWA 成员，他们在男人们离开之前准备了羊毛包裹，然后在战争期间继续定期寄送包裹。另一个感人之处是孤独的十字架，上面挂着头盔，以纪念那些躺在无名坟墓中的澳大利亚人。
该地区的雕塑具有质朴的气息，为纪念馆的整体澳大利亚风情增添了色彩。霍克做得很好，这是一个出色的创新纪念馆。展出的澳大利亚陆军野战炮是 1987 年在当地拍摄的电影“轻骑兵”中使用的复制品。
值得花一个小时左右的时间漫步其中，与当地人一起表达感谢。
