The Unseen Cost of Freedom A stroll along a coastal track on a sunny Sunday morning can be an quintessential Australian experience.
As we watch runners and walkers, children playing in the waves, and dogs chasing each other, it's easy to forget the sacrifices that made such carefree moments possible.
Nearby, a simple plaque nestled among the grasses serves as a poignant reminder of one such sacrifice. It commemorates Alexander Henry White, a young soldier from Ballarat who died six months into World War I.
