Kokoda, the defining battle for Australia during World War 2, is a testament to the courage and resilience of our soldiers. But there’s an untold story of heroes who played a pivotal role during the grueling Kokoda Campaign – the local natives turned porters. In this program, we delve into the heart-wrenching history of Kokoda, where more Australians perished in the harsh conditions of Papua New Guinea than in any other campaign of the war. The steep, inhospitable terrain tested the limits of human endurance. Amid the horrors of war, thousands of Papua New Guineans from villages along the Kokoda Track stepped up as carriers and porters. They walked for miles, carrying heavy loads, while their bravery knew no bounds. These selfless men not only delivered vital supplies to the front lines but also undertook the daunting task of rescuing the sick and wounded, often guiding them through the treacherous mud. Join us as we pay tribute to these unsung heroes whose contributions during the Kokoda Campaign are a shining example of human spirit, sacrifice, and unity. Let their stories inspire and remind us of the remarkable resilience that can be found in the darkest of times.
