You're Top Poster: #1   | SEAC Liberators This is an amazing site on the Liberator Squadrons who served in Burma and the Far East: http://www.acseac.co.uk/ I works very well in conjunction with the two volume "Burma Liberators - RCAF in SEAC" John R. W. Gwynne-Timothy (but these can be hard to find as they are currently out of print).

You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?

You're Top Poster: #2 | B*tch. :-) Did I mention Desert Scorpions arrived while I was away (and Just One of the Many and Not Peace but a Sword)? No, well it did, and it's magnificent. Truly one of, if not the, best sqn history books I've ever seen. They wasted some pages by including pics though so might not be your cup of tea, Mr Toor! LOL, am enquiring with the book shop that sold it about postage to the UK, air and sea. Will let you know.
