Syrian scenes in 1941
Just been watching the 1961 TV series ANZACS . Todays episode was the Syrian campaign. Many scenes of Ford and Chevy utes and MH tractors. Other scenes included : The French had buried a Kegresse ? Half track which the Australians salvaged , they used it to recover French artillery pieces. Wonder if the series is available somewhere ?

Sparrow
Todays episode is Sparrow Force on Timor. Some re-enactments of the wireless set Winnie amd the famous radio contact with Darwin with a CMP equipped with wireless In Darwin. Going through the AWM census books there are a few vehicles listed to Sparrow Force... probably ended in Jap hands.

Quote:
Its on free to air on 72 or 73 between 3pm and 4pm daily. They drag it out each Anzac week. I've seen most of them before . The series dates from 1961 . The Timor episode today mentioned Wilsons Prom where the Independent companies trained. |
