Airfields Used By The RNZAF In The Pacific War, WW 2, Henderson Field, Guadalcanal.

Hi, long time no hear.
In 1980 I was challenged by the curator of the RNZAF Ohakea Museum to write a book about the "things" in the Air Force, rather than the Pilots etc.
the last 2-3 years of my service I collected anything I could get my hands on, but did nothing with it .
I know my limitations as a writer, so it was put in boxes and kept moving with us when we changed houses.
January 2017, my son talked me into joining Steem, said that I should put all the stuff I had up here, because it will then be available for someone in the future to fill in the holes and write the book.
For the last 18 months or so I have been putting up stuff for anybody that is interested.
Besides which, It was a great time to have spent, doing all sorts of things, some of which shouldn't be repeated, seeing some strange sights, and having a ball doing it.
We are approaching the end, [thank goodness, you say]
