520 |a 'A century ago we got it wrong. We sent thousands of young Australians on a military operation that was barely more than a disaster. It's right that a hundred years later we should feel strongly about that. But have we got our remembrance right?

Vividly evoking the war in Afghanistan, Brown reveals the experience.
