Default forklift

The primitive forklift lifting up the Dodge is interesting , and the large buildings .

One of the few stories my father told us: he was in Port Moresby with his sailor mates , they were up to no good and all kinds of mischief happened . They wanted to get inside a large store building but there was an American soldier on guard out the front . They gave the guard a bottle of whisky , after half an hour the guard was blotto and they walked straight in . Opening heaps of boxes all they found were US army officers dress uniforms .
