From Desert Sand to Jungle Mud
Yes, I will be at Corowa with the scanner as well as my cameras, so please bring out those photographs. It's amazing what turns up at swap meets, ebay and sunday markets, and a lot of you have already kindly shared images for this project. It's largely a 'labour of love' for Mike and myself. I know Mike has invested thousands of hours over many years carefully researching every detail of this subject, the result of which is wonderfully detailed and informative captions to the images.
An interesting example of what can be found is an image of Ford No9 Gun Tractor 132141 which I originally had photographs of when it was new taken at Wesley Grammar in Melbourne; Euan McDonald's father in law, with his 'blitz radar' turned on found some pictures of the same truck in company with other FGT8 and 9s taken about 10 years later at Puckapunyal!

worth the wait.
Mike and Keith,
This project sound like what we have all wanted for years and if it anything like the reference books that Mike has done in the past it will be well worth the wait. I know that if we can all share as much information as possible then we will be rewarded with a excellent read. I’m very excited that it’s starting to come together as I know that Mike and Keith both have been researching this dream for years and now it’s becoming reality.
