35 for Tasmanian Vietnam Vets
OK, these are some of the 35 bound for Van Diemans Land (Tasmania) that foreign overseas land!!!, nevertheless, they too honoured Australia, and we in turn want to remember them.
.
Some of these are from DonP and some are from other Forumites who donated earlier in the year for the Vets, a big thanks to all. Amos
