CAMP ASCOT, BRISBANE  - Transit troops passing through Brisbane, or there on R & R, might find themselves at Camp Doomben or Camp Ascot - each were race tracks in the English style.  By 1943 there were more than 1,200 tents pitched inside the track, with more located in the immediate environs.  Both remain until today.
