New Australian Club in London Opens at Australia House
A new Australian ALF Club and Rendezvous has opened in the basement of Australia House London after the former Centre in Strand Theatre moved. About 300 troops use it daily, with facilities for gear, messages, pay, refreshments and travel information. A canteen run by Australian women provides meals while NSW and Queensland agents assist with receptions for soldiers visiting London. The centre serves as shelter during air raids and coordinates excursions to Tower of London and Parliament, with the Coldstream Guards contributing a daily gesture of welcome.
