Hi All, My second post here and I thought it might be worth telling you who I am. I'm 43, Living in Sydney Australia and spent nearly a decade in the Royal Australian Navy as a General List Officer (Navigation). I've taken an interest in Military history, attending ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day ceremonies in as many locations as I can. Changi (Singapore) and Isuarava (on the Kokoda Track) are two of my highlights for ANZAC Day. I'm currently writing a blog on the 75th Anniversary of World War II - I'm one of those that believes the war was started well before Britain, Australia, France and New Zealand declared war in September 1939. So I've started my blog in October 1937 and I'm working my way through. The material is a little sparse for a daily blog just yet, so it's only about weekly at this stage, but I think it will be a daily thing by the time we get to mid 1939. I'll be posting events as they occur, with a small delay of 75 years.
Hello from the other side of the planet... Crikey! Welcome aboard mate! (that's my very sad and quite embarrising attempt to speak in an Australian accent) g'day to ya luv!
Glad to have you here. Do you have a link to your blog? I think many of us would be interested in reading it.
Welcome, paulb. We are beginning to have quite a burgeoning population of Aussies on the Forum. BTW, that's a good thing.
Hey, I wanna live in Australia and groove to the didgeridoo... [video=youtube;yGv0WsSQsSU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGv0WsSQsSU[/video]
Welcome to the forum........I am likewise interested in your blog and am looking forward to viewing those things that began to form the path to war from your perspective.....we look at things here now and then and discuss and sometimes cuss about it all with lots of unique insights from around the world and that is often quite interesting....I hope you enjoy the forum.
