Angels of War is a 1982 Australian documentary film, created by Andrew Pike, Hank Nelson and Gavan Daws, about the Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels in Papua New Guinea in World War 2.[1][2]
Angels of War cost $80,000 with funding provided by the Australian National University and the Australian War Memorial.[3]
Neil Jillet of the Age says in his capsule review that it "is an interesting compilation of new (color) and archival (black and white) film, and a reminder of how soon we forget those who helped Australia to victory."[4] In the Canberra Times Philip Castle finishes "This excellent film, being shown appropriately around Anzac Day, might in a significant way record the service of the Fuzz-Wuzzy Angels, lest we forget."[5]
