This book traces the history of the Civil Defence in Western
Australia, from the mid-1930s, to when the State Emergency Service
was first formed in 1959, and the subsequent years as it passed
through a number of government departments including the Premiers
department, WA Police, as its own department and ending with being
under the general responsibility of the Department of Fire and
Emergency Services. DFES is supported by an extensive network of
over 29,000 volunteers (including 2000 SES Volunteers) and 1100
career firefighters who all work together with the community and
government to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from a
diverse range of emergencies. This book has been authored by Gordon
Hall ESM and peer reviewed by John Capes OAM and Allen Gale.
