Hi, I’d just like to say how enjoyable it was to learn about your fathers incredible journey. The photos were captivating and inspired me to create a hand drawn tribute with various aspects. Thankyou for sharing this story.

Greetings,
Very interesting information on this site about the experience of POWs from the 2/19th battalion including, of course, your dad. Well done on putting it together. I wonder if you would mind to send me an email separate from a public discussion since my interest is not only in these incredible stories (very moving, very well told and well-documented here) but in that bloke who was described as “the best officer ever to pull boots on”, Reggie Newton.
Cheers,
Chris

Thank you Chris… Reg Newton saved the lives of the men under his command during those terrible years.
