About this listen

 Who gets awarded for bravery and why? In the final episode of Uncle Charlie: The Invisible Hero, host Paulien Roessink speaks to community members who know a lot about awarding bravery. We’ll hear from David Arden, the president of the Royal Humane Society of Australasia, and Michael Bell, Indigenous Liaison for the Australian War Memorial, alongside previous guests of the series. We'll find out why people still think formal recognition from the government is due 83 years after Uncle Charlie saved three Dutch people during the Broome Air Raid attacks.
