And came home, they did! Pen to paper or words cannot really express the emotions, the feelings or the memories that really came home on the 4,5 & 6th April 1998. It was overwhelming to say the least.To actually be with veterans that
I had worked side by side with, even only as a cook (and our work went
much further than that), not having seen them since 1969/70 was
something that I will never forget. |

Well what can I say? It appears that the Medical Corps still has the best drinkers. I realised this not only on the first day of Registration, but regulary throughout the weekend (it appears those truckies were at it all the time). It took three weeks to settle my liver down. I never had a hangover all the time I was in Sydney (well I never got the chance too) but the one I got a couple of days later was the hangover of hangovers! |

The 1998 Reunion was planned to coincide with 1 Field Hospital’s 30th Anniversary and it was the perfect opportunity for a joint celebration by the members of the Association and the current Unit. |

The event of the 30th Anniversary Celebrations meant quite a lot to this unit both at officer and other rank level, and I believe the unit was up to the challenges presented on the weekend and that all personnel involved performed extremely well. As per normal, the brunt of the hard work was shouldered by the soldiers who were cognisant of the fact that this reunion was of great importance to all who attended. The chance for the other ranks of this unit to “strut their stuff” and rub shoulders with the veterans of 1 Aust Field Hospital was something they were looking forward too with great expectation. |
