Default Blamey

Years ago I met a fellow who worked on Blameys aircraft ( A Lockheed Loadstar or similar ? ), based at Essendon airport during the war . According to this chap I met , Blamey would turn up at Essendon with his band of hangers on , secretary , etc. It was the norm for Blamey to be pissed .

His favourite thing was to go up North to N.G. and sack the most able commanders in the field . Rowell being the most noted Gen. he sacked .
