Governor recognizes "39'ers", 70th Anniversary of the start of WW2

[Scrivo18]

Hi Everyone

I have just gotten home from Horsham where they had a reserve forces day, and also recognised 3 of the 39er's from that district.
There was agroup of light horse, I think 6 or 7 horses, 6 Austin Champs, about 6 jeeps including mine, a Austin ute of sometype, a Stuart M3 tank with no Turret and a V8 engine, several modern Australian army vehicles, my halftrack and two bren Carriers, on #444 very early and my own carrier.

What was very special was that 2 of the 39er's were Bren carrier driver's and had seen active service with Bren's in Syria and at El Alemain. I felt very proud to have been able to take the carrier to the display and have spoken to both of these gentleman.

I will try to get some photo's organised.
