Harold’s War

Found this interesting link while surfing.  It is the story of a guy who served with the 2nd/7th in PNG.  He had a leg amputated as a result of a single GSW and in the recovery process, at one stage, he had received 60 pints of blood.  This caused some interest during the war and he ended up as a feature in the Woman’s Weekly of the time and was interviewed several times on Sydney radio.

 

It’s a good read put together by his son based on interviews with his father.
