[QUOTE=leon bee;1550975]I guess it was something like 48 years ago for me...........my ears are still ringing.

I was called up into the Australian army 50 years ago in Oct 1967 to do my 2 years National service. My ears are still ringing as well. My grandfather served 4 years in France in WW1 and came home in 1919 with damaged lungs from the gas. We will always remember these remarkably brave men. Lest we forget. Regards, Kevin.
