On Anzac Day 2010, a 96-year-old man in Hobart, a returned soldier from World War II, wrote a letter to the local paper thanking the people who were going to that morning's dawn service. Who was this man? Why did he write this letter? This book is the story of a man who went off to fight in World War II, detailing how he dealt with his wartime experiences, and how he could never forget the young men with him during the war who didn't come back.
