  7. Colleen Mealy worked as an Australian Army nurse in Vietnam. Conditions were basic, but they were dedicated to their patients.
  8. They did amazing service - The untold stories of six Australian army nurses who served at the only Australian field hospital in the Vietnam War. Arriving in Saigon amidst the stifling heat and the overwhelming US military presence six young Australian army nurses found themselves hit with the reality of the Vietnam War. Based at Vung Tau at the only Australian field hospital, the nurses were little prepared for the horrific injuries they were confronted with. Even for those with trauma experience, it was a huge learning curve. From the thrill of riding in a chopper across the beautiful Vietnamese countryside to the life and death situations they faced in theatre and intensive care, the women tell the untold stories of their Vietnam War
  9. Dennis Mitchell (Mitch) - Interviewed on 9th July 2004 Dennis "Mitch" Mitchell was drafted into the Australian Army in 1967, but instead of following orders to join the artillery, he chose a different path—one that led him to the elite Special Air Service (SAS). After completing the grueling selection process, he was deployed to Vietnam, where he conducted covert reconnaissance and combat missions deep in enemy territory. In this interview excerpt, Mitch recounts his journey from civilian life to becoming an SAS soldier, his experiences in Vietnam, and the bonds formed in combat.

  10. YES!!!!! Fresh pineapple sure don't taste as sweet as Aussie tinned pineapple slices!
  11. AUSTRALIA’S REMOTEST TOWN. Kieirrkurra Community. Without a doubt one of the Remote areas in Australia. Often known as the most remote town in Australia, the Kiwirrkurra Community is situated in Western Australia’s Gibson Desert. 1,200 km east of Port Hedland and 850km west of Alice Springs. Its closest neighbouring community is Walungurru (Kintore). 100km west across state borders in the Northern Territory. This indigenous community of around 170 people is passionate about maintaining its heritage and on the 19th of October 2001 the Kiwirrkurra people gained native title over the 42,900 square kilometres of the surrounding land and waters. Lying on the flat, red desert, the community is not an easy one to get to. If you are looking to visit the most remote town in Australia, then make sure you go prepared with a 4WD and caravan. Because there is little accommodation and the closest airport is at Tennant Creek around 600km away.
  12. Ham....toast one side of the bread, liberally butter the soft side, put a nice piece of ham on followed by a ring of sweet pineapple followed by a slice of cheese put back under the grill and get the cheese preferably well browned.....a VERY popular snack, Sunday night meal in Oz.
  13. Its been years since I've been to the town of Mansfeld, I wonder what a 'pizza pie' would be like!
  14. As a kid growing up, this was always our Sunday night dinner -
