You're Top Poster: #2  | I imagine so, John, but who knows what the red tape back then was like. Welcome to the forum Andy M! Feel free to introduce yourself in the Introductions thread if you haven't already. Hope you enjoy it here. The grave site of effectively 645 Australians is a fair chunk out of our MIA ranks. A happy day.
