Call for assistance

It would be appreciated if this could be distribution across your networks thanks

I have been contacted by the current Platoon Commander of 6 Pl B Coy 2RAR who wants to liaise with Former 6 Pl commanders for both tours of 2RAR in South Vietnam.

I have known him since childhood and his reasons for doing this is to introduce some “lived history” into his platoon specifically from the Vietnam War era.

If you are still out there, and willing to help, I can put you in touch with him.

Regards,

Brian McKenzie

All the way – Vietnam documentary

Get your mind out of gutter – just because it’s called All The Way,doesn’t mean it’s about scoring with the opposite sex. Instead, this documentary examines the horrors of the Vietnam War and Australia’s relationship with America. Having gone “All the way with JBJ”, this documentary claims the Australian government was regularly kept in the dark on major decisions, pushing the friendship between the two countries to breaking point. Based on Paul Ham’s book “Vietnam, The Australian War”,this poignant doco, which features never-before-seen footage, examines why Australia really went to war in Vietnam and why we stayed so long.
