WORLD War II veterans and dignitaries will be attending a ceremony in western Sydney on Saturday morning to mark the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Kokoda.
More than 1800 lost their lives and over 4000 were wounded or struck down with illnesses in Papua New Guinea during the Kokoda and Beachheads campaign in 1942.
A flag raising ceremony will be held at Kokoda Track Memorial Walkway in Concord to commemorate those who died.
A plaque dedicated to the memory of all Aboriginal servicemen and women who fought will also be unveiled.
Six veterans of the Papuan campaign will attend the event, alongside NSW Veterans Affairs Minister Victor Dominello and various military officials.
