Rectangular Anzac Day marching banner used by former members of 2/2 Army Field Workshops, AIF. The banner is made of unbleached calico with stitched-on coloured cotton squares forming a red on blue on grey colour patch. The patch is surrounded by the words '2/2 ARMY FIELD WORKSHOPS 4TH 5TH 6TH RECOVERY SECTION', rendered in blue and red paint. There are pockets at all four seams of the banner, those at top and bottom containing dowelling rods, while those at the sides are empty, but would have held the poles used when marching.
2/2 Army Field Workshops was mostly composed of Victorian servicemen, but a small proportion either originated in NSW, or moved there to live after the Second World War. This small group marched together at Anzac Day ceremonies in Sydney under this banner. The colour patch (red square over blue square on a grey square background) is that of Australian Army Ordnance Corps units including: Army Field Workshops; Anti Aircraft Regiment and Brigade Workshops and Ordnance Field Parks. The banner was maintained by John Burton Arnold, formerly Staff Sergeant VX40620 with 2/2 Army Field Workshops, and donated to the Australian War Memorial after his death.
