Diggers' Page

Mixed bag again this month, digs. A few pics are still trickling in but we still haven't heard much from you senior service and air force types. Stan Wilkinson at the R.S.A. will take care of any you have, or you can send them to us or leave them at the Peter Cooper Studio.

Mrs E. Aydon, Nelson, sent us the last two pics. At far left (somewhere overseas) are Maurice Abraham and Jeff Aydon (Nelson) and John Higgs (Mapua). No need to tell you who's depicted in the last one. All you digs know a wog when you see one.
