I served on two Merchant Navy vessels so have that in common with you albeit much later on - I am younger than 53. Good to have Navy - both Royal and Merchant - on the site. Swing that lamp!. Regards Hugh

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?
