I had just moved to 'Tatty Ton' from Binbrook when the Charlie Chan incident happened. If I recall correctly it was during the last Lightning APC (I stand to be corrected).

Did my first APC on the Ton with 43 Sqn shortly after (nicknamed the 'Barn Door Det' for some reason)

Great memories of APCs from both the Lightning and Canberra side.

I notice at the bottom of the BOI report 'Claims for vines'. Over the years the locals had more free banner rope (900ft lengths) for their vineyards than you can shake a stick at Never satisfied some people.
