Read their story
My mother was returning to South Australia bringing me with her. The ship called in here en route. It was the ship's last journey with passengers. In September it was given a gun, & used through WWII & survived. My father, a Doctor, followed us back to SA in 1941. I came back here in 1959 and stayed.
