From: Ray Payne Date: 19 August 2013 20:34:29 AEST Subject: Can you help My name is Graham Wilson, I am a retired WO2 ARA (RAR and AUST INT, 26 years total) and now a full time military historian, researcher, writer and consultant. I have been asked by the Head of the Army History Unit to write a book dealing with the history of feeding the Australian soldier from 1885 to 2000 and am now researching this topic and identifying sources. I am keen to make contact with any Vietnam veterans who would be prepared to share information, stories, anecdotes dealing with the subject of food for troops in Vietnam, both in base and in the field. I would also like to hear from anyone (especially ex-RAN cooks) who can provide information and anecdotes on the feeding of troops in transit from and to Australia aboard Sydney. Finally, I am very keen to contact any ex-AACC cooks and caterers who served in Vietnam and get their side of the feeding story. I would greatly appreciate if my request for contact and information could be circulated to your association. I can be contacted via this e-mail address (duty_first@hotmail) or via snail mail at: Mr G.F. Wilson PO Box 6021 Lanyon LPO CONDER ACT 2906 I hope that you will be able to assist me and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Yours sincerely, Graham Wilson Author of: Bully Beef and Balderdash: Some Myths of the AIF Examined and Debunked Dust, Donkeys and Delusions: The Myth of Simpson and the Donkey Exposed Contributor to: The Oxford Companion to Australian Military History
