Publishers Description: This transcription was always going to be a labour of love, produced as it had to be, by people two generations removed from the diarys author.Not only have styles of hand-writing changed in that period, but also commonly-used abbreviations and colloquial expressions have much varied in that time.For their patience and persistence as well as their dedication to the job at hand, I am indebted to Jenny Ebenezer, Aaron OKeeffe, Cathy West, Margaret Wrigley and Anne Strathearn, without whose commitment this transcription would not have been completed.I am also indebted to the Commonwealth Department of Veterans Affairs whose financial support through the Anzac Centenary Local Grants Program has enabled this transcription to be printed.Whilst every attempt has been made to transcribe Brigadier Robertsons words accurately, no guarantee can be given that mistakes have not occurred and any such mistakes are mine and my responsibility alone.P.J.
