New boy on the block

Hi to all.
What a good site, only had a quick look but be back later. Im ex forces 15 years Royal Engineers 5 of which were with EOD the newer title for Bomb Disposal. I run 4 Engineer web sites and at the moment we are updating our Roll of Honour to move it form a list of names to having photos of graves/memorials details of incidents that they lost their lives citations for awards ect. Always looking for local people to help with photos. Also anybody that has any info stories on Bomb Disposal always interested
All the best to all

Pete

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)

What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts? Check out this site:
