The whole artical was about one third of a page in the Tumut and Adelong Times.

Hi Robert
That is very interesting and appropriate that this is all being told now. I would love to see a copy of the newspaper clipping. While doing the research I learned so much about these guys and to think there are so few left to carry on with the fight for benefits. I am happy that I could do my little bit
Cheers
Tony
