Sgt Cedric Popkin had his claim "confirmed" by Lt D L Fraser, Intelligence Officer 11th Infantry Brigade, but the claims made by Gunners W J Evans and R Buie, both of the 53rd Battery, 14th Australian Field Artillery Brigade, 5th Australian Divisional Artillery were "confirmed" by Major L E Beavis, CO 53rd Battery.

As Churchill said - two peoples divided by a common language (or something like that; and it might have been someone else who said it, but hey, you know what I mean).

BTW, you should've asked for a beefburger - same thing, just more expensive (plus more stuff on the side).

PS, "can of worms" over here.

PPS, you put gas in your automobiles - so did we during WWII (well, I didn't, I'm a post-war production) but nowadays we put petrol in our cars.

Oh well, witching hour + 30. Must be time to climb the little wooden hill.
