In the lead up to Anzac Day 2011, Labor MPJason Clare, Liberal MP Scott Morrison, Independent MP Rob Oakeshott and a group of young people from Bankstown, Cronulla and Port Macquarie have set off on the
Sandakan Track. They are retracing the footsteps of more than 1,000 prisoners of war who were marched more than 200km from Sandakan to Ranau in 1945. Only 6 Australians survived. It was the worst atrocity in Australia's military history.
