For every person who makes it to the top, there are others who toil in valuable lives. For every innovation, industry and golden moment on these pages, there are more that have made the region what it is today. The American author Ernest Hemingway wrote in a style he referred to as “the iceberg approach”. In his theory, seven- eighths of a story is “underwater” for every part that shows, so the reader is only getting a small portion of a bigger picture, but still gets the feel of the big picture.

This magazine is the Hunter in iceberg theory. Just as the visible tip of an iceberg masks a greater mass beneath, these 1. Hunter “iceberg” hide a bulk unseen but, hopefully, felt. Welcome to The Hunter: Glory Days, a countdown of 1. Hunter’s history that have led it to this place and time.

Herald editor, the late Chris Watson. Each week we'll add to the countdown. WORLD WAR II IS OVER: AUGUST, 1. In the early afternoon of Wednesday, August 1.

Newcastle to celebrate and dance in the streets: World War II was over. In a Hunter Valley coalmine a wheeler heard the news and sent skips into the mine chalked on the side with: “Official. The bastards have chucked it.” When the news reached The Dyke on Newcastle Harbour, men rushed to catch the ferry while others couldn’t wait and dived, fully clothed, into the harbour to swim to the city. Men working on the railway bridge across the Hawkesbury River made sure train travellers got the message. On each of the bridge spans they chalked “Japan Surrenders” and “War Over.” People poured out of shops which closed their doors and remained closed for days. Industries closed with their workers heading for the city. After the announcement – made by Prime Minister Ben Chifley and relayed to Hunter St – Radio 2. KO began playing dance music and in a flash Hunter St, between Bolton and Newcomen streets, turned into a huge outdoor dance hall, where one of the lasting images of VP- Day is the news photograph of Phyllis Mook and Flo Dillon doing a celebratory dance. Mook, a well- known dancer in Newcastle remembered for her performances at the Palaise Royale, died in 2. Teresa Purnell, told The Herald some time ago that her mother had been at her grandfather’s fruit shop at Swansea when news of the war’s end broke. “They drove to town in the table- top truck, with mum on the  back waving the Chinese flag,” she said. The town went mad and mum danced all afternoon.” Trains, buses and trams in and out of the city were packed, with many people walking into town. Men played football in and out of the city crowds using a kerosene tin for a football, flags and bunting appeared on shops, buildings and ships in the harbour, while confetti rained from office windows on a victory parade. Thousands attended a special service in King Edward Park, many going on to an evening of sports and entertainment at Newcastle Sports Ground. Milkmen concerned about interruption to deliveries by revellers asked the army to provide them with a military escort, and by nightfall Newcastle was ringed with bonfi res on the hills at Merewether, New Lambton and Waratah. The Newcastle Morning Herald report the next day had one of the largest headings ever used by the newspaper at that time: “JAPAN ORDERED TO CEASE FIRE, Mac.

Arthur Calls Envoy To Manila.” “Manila, August 1. General Douglas Mac. Arthur, who is to receive the Japanese surrender on behalf of the Allied Powers, has directed the Tokio authorities to order an immediate cessation of hostilities by Japanese forces. “He fixed the date and hour of cessation, said that Allied forces would be directed to stop fighting when this had been done. “Tokio Radio at 4pm (Tokio time) said an Imperial order to cease fire was expected soon, but that Allied warships should stay clear of Japanese home waters until then in order to avoid any untoward incident. It announced to Japanese troops on the fighting fronts that Japan had surrendered. “The Japanese Government has been instructed to send an envoy, with service advisers, to Manila to receive instructions on the carrying into effect of the surrender terms. “On his arrival, the Japanese representative must present a document, authenticated by the Emperor, providing him with the power to receive in the name of the Emperor, the Japanese Government, and Imperial Headquarters the Allied requirements.” The front page also had a small panel with the headline: THE SIX YEARS’ WAR “WORLD WAR I. August 4, 1. 91. 4 – November 1. World War II. (September 3, 1. August 1. 4, 1. 94.

The date of commencement in each case is based on Great Britain’s declaration of a state of war.” It was on page two that readers were told that the day before thousands of people had taken to the streets of Newcastle. “News yesterday morning of Japan’s surrender sent Newcastle into a fever of excitement. “The outburst of genuine feeling and joy was far more spontaneous than that which greeted the news of Germany’s surrender a few months ago. It was estimated that 1. Last night’s procession filled the steets again. “Crowds of young people danced in the Hunter street between Wolfe and Perkin streets. Police were in the vicinity but did not interfere. “Trumpets, tin cans, rattlers, oil drums dragged behind motor cars, small whistles, motor horns, train and steamer whistles added to the noise. “During the afternoon two flights of Beaufighters and two flights of Mosquito planes flew almost at rooftop over the city. “Thousands attended a service at King Edward Park; and at night thousands more followed bands to sport and entertainment at the Sports Ground.

Crowds remained about the streets until late at night. While the sirens were sounding yesterday morning, crews of ships and tugs brought out all their flags from their lockers, and by the time the first joy- riders in the home- made peace procession were skirting the dockside for variety in their celebrations, the ships looked gay and their flags gave an answering wave to gesticulating figures beyond the railway gates. “Newcastle people heard the news in different ways, and differently they responded to it. Few thought of anything but the wonderful news . It was actually Newcastle’s second celebration of the “end” of World War II, the first for V- Day (victory in Europe) and the second for VP- Day (victory in the Pacific). V- Day was a muted affair compared with VP- Day, when residents of the Hunter really let their hair down. It was late at night, around 1. May 8, when news that the war in Europe was over broke in Newcastle, amidst noise from ships, trains and cars and the ringing bells of Christ Church Cathedral. By midnight about 5.

Newcastle Post Office and began an impromptu dance, using their singing to keep the dance beat. There were more celebrations the next day, and men charged with drunkenness all gave the same excuse: “Was celebrating V- Day”, and all were discharged with the same verdict: “Admonished and discharged.”      GREAT WAR ENDS Shortly after eight o’clock at night on Monday, November 1.
