“We, the ACT TPI Association, have been asked by the Federation of the TPI Association to create the same CD using your song for a national campaign to Federal politicians. The Federation has asked me to ask your permission to use your song on the national campaign. They only intend sending the CDs to the Federal and other local State politicians. For your information, we have found the CD of great benefit in informing our local politicians of just what is a TPI. Could you please advise if your approval is given to the Federation using your song on the CD?” – TPI – Totally and Permanently Incapacitated Ex Servicemen and Women

In the past, this song reached far… “The Norwegian publishing house Aschehoug is about to publish a new series of English schoolbooks for 8-10th grade in the Norwegian market. In this new series, called Key English, we want to make use of the song ‘Can You Hear Australia’s Heroes Marching?’”

The Korean, Malayan and Indonesian War Memorial in Berri, South Australia, has a plaque that includes the words of the song, in memory of the 339 Australian servicemen killed in the Korean War June 1950 – July 1953.

Can you hear Australia’s heroes marching?

The ones who fought and gave their all

Can you hear Australia’s heroes marching?

Can you hear them as they march into eternity?

There will never be a greater love

There just couldn’t be a greater sacrifice

There just couldn’t be

Can you hear Australia’s heroes marching?
