Sir. Thank you to the USA for being our country's allie during the dark hours of the Second World War when the Japs were knocking on our door. My olde Dad (who sadly passed away on August 1 of this year) seen action against the Japs in New Guinea with the Australian 30th Infantry Battalion and for a short time was in camp with some Yanks around about Christmas time and the Yanks would give the Aussie Diggers some of their turkey rations which they were issued with for Christmas. My olde dad always spoke very highly of your countrymen. Australia will never ever forget the role your Navy played in the Battle of Coral Sea. May God always bless our two great countries.
