Default Re: HOLLANDIA (JAYAPURA) in 1944

Hello Skip,

The latter part of '44 I was up in the Philippines, I returned to Sydney by ship in 1946, there was a mountain of red tape for a fiancé to immigrate to the USA back in those days, we had kept in touch writing letters, and I was pretty restless back home. Looking back now, she was the one good thing from that whole dirty business we were involved in, she helped me make sense of things, and never asked me questions about the things I had done.
