    G’day Norman
    I am the youngest son of Roger and Merle. I have been slowly piecing together the family history and stumbled upon this site yesterday. I was looking at the 2-8 AFR Assoc and recognized your name as reference to Chief. I was hoping to catch up with you about 18 months ago while visiting my cousin, S Kidd, in Devonport. S Kidd is Jean Garrard, nee Kidd’s, great nephew. Time was against me so i didn’t contact you. I have a copy of Chief’s AWM service records and a small photo of him having a beer n smoke in Palestine with some mates. Also a photo in uniform from around the early 1930’s (coronation?). But other then that, nothing at all. Chiefs service records don’t give a detailed account of any action he saw. I would be very interested in purchasing a history of the Regiment, especially anything with reference to Chief. Also I would like to become an affiliate member if possible, but the application form wont load for unknown reasons.

    HI Neil

    I am sure I have sent a reply but in case it has been lost in cyberspace
    Firstly we would be more than happy to pass on what we know of 2/8th Aust Fd Regt Assoc and the book of the wartime unit with a couple of stories in it about “Chief”

    Cecilie has just moved into a nursing home at Norwood, she is fine just very frail.

    Please contact me on my email address of forfar@gmail.com I usually look at it most days.

    Kind regards Norm Andrews
