Hello Mike,

I just found a segment in a newspaper via Trove regarding Jumbo...

Accessed 28, January 2023 from https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/12472398. It is a very poor quality photograph not worth posting here. However the caption reads...THE AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTING COMMISSION
recording and broadcasting unit which will leave shortly to join the A.I.F. overseas, photographed in Sydney From left: Captain Lawrence H. Cecil, Captain H.Boyle, Warrant-Officer Gallwey, Captain Frank Hurley, and Warrant-Officer W. McFarlane. The spelling of the names could be incorrect due to limitations of the image to text translation software. The newspaper was The Argus (Melbourne Victoria). published on Saturday the 15th of June 1940, Page 5.

Yes - I tracked down a copy of the book and it should be on its way to me shortly.

Kind regards
Lionel
