    Hi All,

    In my research some time back, I came across a reference to my father's colour patch in New Guinea. A member of the 2/10 Cavalry Commandos, they were part of the 6th division.

    View attachment 1386

    Their motto hails from a Tank Regiment in WWI, but relates directly to the colour patch.

    "Through Mud and Blood to the Green Fields Beyond."

    I think it's very appropriate given that the theatre of operations was the New Guinea jungle.

    What other mottos do we have out there?

    Cheers

    Owen
