Re: BEDE TONGS M M
Good on you Bill and thanks for sharing that it is truly inspirational and such a practical solution that doesn't cost million of dollars to instigate. Any service club or school or scout group could adopt that as a charity and put even small sums of monies raised to excellent use, and of course that could be applied to many poor areas around the world as well.
What an awesome man Bede is. In his 90's and still putting it out there. Good on him.
Cheers
Maureen

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

"Goodonya Bede" and all those good hearted people.
But please remember the mess we made 'civilizing' our native Australians.
We must not repeat those errors.
Query - why do we call it the Kokoda Track when written upon the overhead arch is - Kokoda Trail ?

Re: BEDE TONGS M M
What the public don't see is on the other side of memorial gate at Owers Corner is written the Kokoda Track. Most trackers dont take shots of that. trail is an Americanisation of theme. To me it will always be the track because that just what it is.A Track. If you didn't take guide you wouldn't find your way over it

My uncle Dave always called it "track" and he was there. Seventh Div, 2/25th battalion.

Re: BEDE TONGS M M
"Thanks" Noel and Mal. My brother was in that neck of the woods, but he was a RAAF type. Probably never walked the TRACK.
As far as I am aware, neither did the Americans. Why then have we taken on their term ?
