In Red Cross
Mr. Vic Maxwell, of Rabaul, who was recently successfully operated on in a Sydney hospital, has returned to Rabaul to resume his duties with the PCB there.
This is Miss L. M. White, formerly of Ocean Island, and now with Australian Red Cross, in I wakuni, Japan. She was on the “Triona” in 1940 on her way home to Ocean Island from Australia when that ship was captured by a German raider. With other survivors, she was landed on Emirau Island, off New Ireland.
When rescued she returned to Ocean Island from which she was evacuated in 1942. After joining the Red Cross she served in Australia and Morotai, as well as in Japan. —Photo from British Information Office, Sydney.
