Bill and his mates were put to the ultimate test in a succession of battlefields from Giarabub and Tobruk in North Africa to Milne Bay, Buna, Sanananda, Shaggy Ridge and Balikpapan in the Pacific.Bill was a young soldier who participated in these battles. He was also a keen observer. As an author he has captured not only some of the most critical Australian fighting of the Second World War, but, most importantly, has provided a unique insight into the men who fought these battles and what they achieved.
