For many families who suffered the loss of a family member in either the First and Second World Wars, the heartache of not knowing their loved one's final resting place deepened their grief and sense of helplessness. For these families, they had to endure the torment of mourning with questions that could not be answered. Since 2013, Fallen Diggers Incorporated, a non-for-profit organisation, has made it their mission to find as many of the estimated over 30,000 missing Australian soldiers as possible. Through dedicated research and battlefield archaeology, Fallen Diggers shares how they work to identify Unknown Australian soldiers as it is their belief that those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their country deserve to have the honour of a known grave. Whether brought "in from the cold" of a field or lying in an unknown cemetery grave, Fallen Diggers aim is to be able to say, "Stand down soldier. Your duty is done. Rest in Peace knowing you have been found. Lest We Forget."
