You're Top Poster: #11   | Great photos, thanks David. Also, regarding Garry Cooper, he was later a 747 pilot with Ansett. Garry's book, "Sock it to 'em Baby" details his time as a Forward Air Controller and was published by Allen & Unwin. It's a very good read. Web Cooper.jpg Cheers Owen |

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?
