An uncomfortable Narrative

[bowji john]

Didn't quite know where to put this

Whether you are of that time and place

Or just curious of a time gone by

Joe's story is worth a read

The Bush Wars. An interesting time in modern history, I've just been learning a little about it, I remember it being on the news as a little kid.

My cousin sent me the link to a veterans Facebook group where it gets good reviews. I'm not sure if he served with Joseph (he wasn't RLI) or knew him through Parks later in life, anyway he said it's a good read so I have ordered a copy this week, at only £3 postage from RSA I'm hoping it's not very thin @bowji john ?

I worked with a white chap in Worthing and he was formerly in the RDF as a young man. He said that they would send electric current through the railway lines then go along to see what IEDs had blown, often there was a ring of "freedom fighters" laying dead around it.
The farmers would call in an attack and he and his black troop would chopper in to find that everyone had legged it, he always carried a fighting shotgun so he would help himself to some chickens then send a trooper up the water tower ladder then shout "pull" then they would cook them on a fire.
