The lasting impact of anti-war protester Nadine Jensen | Our Vietnam War | ABC Australia

When 1RAR sailed back to Australia in June 1966 after its one-year deployment to Vietnam, the unit returns to a hero’s welcome. Over 300,000 people turn out to greet them in Sydney. Among the crowd is anti-war protester Nadine Jensen, a typist from Campbelltown. She’s covered in red paint and approaches commanding officer Colonel A. V. Preece during the march, smearing the paint over Preece before being arrested. Over 60,000 Australians, including ground troops and air force and navy personnel, served in Vietnam; 523 died as a result of the war and almost 2,400 were wounded. On August 18, 2023, Australia marks the 50th anniversary of the end of its involvement in the Vietnam War with a national service at the Australian Vietnam Forces National Memorial in Canberra. ___________________________________________ The 3-part series Our Vietnam War tells the story Australia’s involvement in the words of the men who were sent to fight; the battles, the protests, returning and the long shadow the war cast on the people whose lives were turned upside down.
