Yes mate, Seen the movie and enjoyed it. A crucial turning point in the Pacific war but not many movies made about this historic feat apart from the occasional documentary. Not many people were aware that the troops were CMF, (Citizen Military Force) also refered too as Chocos, (Chocolate Soldiers) or Week End Warriors, sent in as a blocking force while waiting for the AIF (Australian Imperial Forces) to return from the Middle East.

There endith the history lesson for today.

Cheers

Little Jo
