The Only Woman at Bomana

Among more than 3,800 Commonwealth war graves at Bomana War Cemetery lies a single woman—RAAF nurse Sister Marie Eileen Craig.

In this episode, we honour her remarkable life and reflect on a powerful truth: not every casualty of war dies in battle. Some give their lives serving humanity, caring for the wounded and bringing hope to others.

Join Glenn as he shares the story of the only woman buried at Bomana, explores the vital role of military nurses during World War II, and reminds us that courage isn't always found on the front line—sometimes it's found in compassion.

A moving tribute to a remarkable Australian whose service and sacrifice deserve to be remembered.
