    Hi All,

    If you search the AWM collections with 'unknown' or 'unidentified' you come up with a number of chaps yet to be named. In the past I've had a look at the unidentified RAAF chaps in Korea and found a few familiar faces which I was able to name.

    In the shot below, I was able to identify both pilots for the AWM. Particularly the short, nuggety bloke on the left.:)

    ...who looks remarkably like you - give or take 50 cm!

    Would love to be able to identify people for the AWM.

    Thanks Andy,

    That build had him being able to withstand a few more G's. Less distance for the heart to pump to the brain as he would often remind me.

    Cheers
