Royal Flying Doctor Service Tourist Facility: Two Iconic Territory Stories
Darwin, Northern Territory
4.8 · 285 reviews on Viator
Two Iconic Territory Stories in One Iconic Location One started Territory operations in 1939, the other, occurred in 1942 as an act of aggression unparalleled on Australian soil. Both forged the resolve and resilience of the people who live in Australia's Northern Territory. The first iconic story is the Royal Flying Doctor Service, affectionately known throughout Australia as the RFDS. Founded by the Reverend John Flynn, it began its aero medical operations in the Northern Territory in 1939. The second iconic story featured is the Bombing of Darwin on 19th February 1942. The bombing of the harbour brought destruction to the city of Darwin, and many of the experiences and stories of what happened that day. This facility sits on the iconic location of Stokes Hill Wharf which was bombed during the raid on 19th February 1942.
