Bombing of Darwin

So should the DUMPER.

.

Disagree Doug

We thought the same at first and then after looking back at that stage in our lives we changed our tune. He was a young chippie and maybe did not have any real "family connection" with the bombing apart from a general "the war came to Australia" attitude that most young folk had at that age and that time.

The culprits are the Museum and his seniors at the job. But they would have been typical of any council team. In to do a job and that's what they do. No thinking outside the box and if the post goes in the middle of the man's driveway bad luck because that's where we will put. It's not our job to question it. Maybe a little thought these days but not then mate. More thought would go into when we have the next cuppa or knock off.

Not the young bloke mate. He could even have been just a teenager then with thoughts for girls only. He at least showed an interest and was not backed up by those around him who should have known.

You have my deepest sympathies . Keep your chin up. If you need to talk to someone , just call .

Thanks for the Frontline link Doug. I will keep an eye on it. Even though I rarely visit Facebook this one may be okay.

My father was wounded during one of the 64 bombing raids. He was the pharmacist on the hospital ship Manunda. He was discharged after that and many years later it finally got him. Just before I left school.

I was told once that we had more bombs dropped on Darwin that the yanks had on them at Pearl Harbour.

I don't know if you saw Current Affairs last night but they had a bit on flying the Australian flag. Some know all has researched it and said that those who fly the Australian flag are more likely to be racists. What!!!!. If being proud of this country then I am a racist 100% I just put them on the car again as I usually do for Australia Day and more importantly for me, for ANZAC day. That's a bit personal for Dad. And myself and my mates as I went to Vietnam.

What are some people coming to.

Like I said thanks for the link.

Cheers

Be a racist mate and fly that Flag, I must be one too as I also fly the Flag,
the person that made that statment probably came here recently, hey you should see the patriotism in USA , Flags every where, and as for Multiculturalism, it has never worked since man evolved on this Earth and never will, it's a do-gooder and political thing, makes them feel good.
