Lieut. R. W. Feetum
p. 11 · Read in the full issue
WE regret that the name of Lieut. R.
'W. Feetum, who was a well-known resident of Rabaul was, through error, omitted from the list of men (pub lished in the “PIM” early this year) who rendered distinguished service through the Allied Intelligence Bureau.
Mr. Feetum was one of those who escaped from Rabaul when the Japanese invaded, and then he joined the AIF.
He became a member of the Allied In telligence Bureau and, early in 1943, he was sent away on a special mission, “des tination unknown.” He has not since been heard of and his fate appears to be shrouded in mystery.
His widow, Mrs. M. S. Feetum, who resides at 135 Wheatley Road. Ormond, Melbourne, would gratefully receive any news whatever which might indicate his fate. She says that she has applied repeatedly to the Army but can get from officialdom no explanation of what hap pened to him beyond the phrase, “we do not know.”
Mr. and Mrs. Hart are at present resi dents of Brisbane. They will be soon re turning to New Guinea where Mr. Hart was engaged in business for many years,
