| Toowoomba was the headquarters of the
1st Australian Army during WW2. It was conveniently placed for the
establishment of the Army and Air Force camps and was often used as a
re-training facility for Servicemen being sent to the Pacific Islands. The
war cemetery is situated within Toowoomba Cemetery on the corner of Anzac
Avenue and South Street West. Centrally located among the 44 graves is a
cross of Sacrifice. The burials are those of 34 soldiers, nine airmen and
one post-war grave.
