| Summary: | The return of Anzac troops after World War Two brings both a baby boom and a surge in the divorce rate. But the newly won peace proves short lived. As the Cold War begins, Australia and New Zealand introduce compulsory national service. When the race for nuclear supremacy escalates, atomic tests begin in our nations' backyards. This episode follows the fight against communism, first in Korea then in Vietnam. By now, television is there to bring the grim reality of war into people's homes and the whisper of opposition grows to a roar.
