Brilliant timely for our group as we trekked toward Naduri last week.
Coming the opposite direction was the legendary Bill James who is the author of the wonderful guide book our trekkers read in the lead up to the trek. A mountain of knowledge ... he was generous enough to address our group with some of his historical insights.
Also pictured is the brains behind On Track Meals, champion fella Ian Lumb

With the passing of the 110th anniversary of the tragic August Offensive at Gallipoli (including Lone Pine and The Nek), this memorial at my local park in Perth brought an extra layer of melancholy this morning.

Our trek medic, Dr Huw Clarke, who is an Emergency Department physician in Perth, was kept busy this trip. An array of injuries including a damaged cornea, deep slice to a forearm, and numerous ulcers and abscesses presented throughout the journey.
Thanks to his knowledge, professionalism and compassion, all our trekkers and porters were able to successfully complete the journey and finish in a relatively comfortable space.

If you haven’t seen Bravery & Betrayal yet, focusing on some truth telling about the SAS involvement in Afghanistan , I encourage you to do so.
One bloke you’ll hear from in the doco is Andrew Chalky White … a pleasure catching up today in Port Moresby.

Disease and illness.
The Kokoda and northern beach campaigns of 1942 and early 1943 claimed around 7,700 allied battle casualties (Australian 🇦🇺 and American 🇺🇸).
At the same time 37,000 became casualties to tropical disease 🦠.
Staggering numbers.

Some people pass swiftly from memory, like a name glimpsed on a
visiting card. Not Alan Haddy. I will remember him all my life, and
whenever I think of him I will remember the lines of Longfellow:

So when a great man dies,
for years beyond our ken,
the light he leaves behind
shines upon the path of men.

2/16th Battalion Medical Officer Major Steward.
