Stephen S Posted 28 September , 2007 Share Posted 28 September , 2007 G'day all, Do any of you own this book or have access to it ? Would it be possible to tell me who the Commanding Officer was in 1917/18 in Palestine ? It must be a great book, I have seen this on abe for $US577 !! regards Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
