War neurosis treatment debate prompts reform calls
An urgent 1945 letter to the Guyra Local Repatriation Committee deplores inhumane wartime treatment of ex servicemen with war neurosis. It urges better care and facilities, and seeks action by the Repatriation Commission with examples of existing bases and Red Cross settings like Gilbulla Menangle and Bowral facilities.

Gilbulla and wartime care plans for ex service personnel
A letter outlines financial support through the Repatriation Department or Commonwealth Social Service Department to allow a man at Gilbulla to maintain duties during recovery. If approved, grants also aid Red Cross. The Tecert association notes progress and considers expanding similar homes across the state for veterans with war neurosis, with inquiries to proceed.
