Hi Sherryl,
Not a problem...I agree it is a special thing.
Its sure a small world, I was pleased when I looked up the dates and saw what he wrote there.
Take care.

Emirau Island
Hi,
Just after anyone that was stationed on Emirau Island towards the end of WW2.
My Grandfather was there and kept several diaries - would be great to know more about the people mentioned in them...or people who were there at the same time.
Cheers
