Cheers Luke.
How's things mate.
Out of interest fella's I picked up this little 1944 publication a few weeks ago,
The Australian Army at War 1939-1944
Foreworded by Blamey
It is somewhat censored but has some excellent images and information with-in it's covers.
9th Divi Tobruk
7th Divi Syria
2/2 Independent Company Portuguese Timor 1942
Darwin 1942
SW Pacific
and this ripper of 9 Divi on parade after the El Alamein battles 1942
Hope you all enjoy.
Cheers gents
Dave
These are great images Dave! I actually have a book called "All the Bulls Men" about the 2/2 commando, I had it autographed by one of the blokes who were in the unit - in fact I picked the book up from his house! He is a fascinating old bloke, it's just an honour to meet men of that calibre.

Re: Post your WW2 Australian Insignia.
G'day Fella's,
Had a rough week last week sorry gents but I will catch up some post's later on. The full 39th set and some others.
Did any of us pick up the Sun Colour Patch guide Luke mentioned? It went for $46.00 I think.
A couple of nice one's there Lithgow, Cheers mate.
All the best
Dave

Re: Post your WW2 Australian Insignia.
Very Nice Dave ~
I am on a mission now with my MD'ing ~ to find a nice original badge/s ~ best to date is three separate Australian Military Forces standard tunic buttons ~
~ BUT THEY WILL come ~
( Our current WWII site is in the Bush and not under water as previous ~ and being a much drier environment overall ~ the odds improve by the day ~ )

The complete 39th Battalion set
They now take pride of place in my 30-42 Militia era insignia collection for sure.
I will post some more pieces later today men as I have my little one staying over this week-end.
Later all
Dave
Bloody Lovely Dave! these are local to my area
