Thanks for doing this, sir.

1) Do you know what happened to any of the other members of your family?

2) While you were with the SOE, if your landlady asked what you were doing to help with the war effort, what would you have said? I assume you couldn't just say it openly!

3) What did you find most difficult when you arrived in England?

Thank you. :)

Did your parents know what you did?

How did you explain to your Australian employer that you were going to be a conscript in Finland?

Would you have considered staying longer if they’d let you?

You say you wanted to experience military life...did you ever consider the Australian army as well, or was this more a kind of weird gap year project where going overseas to Finland was half the point?

Sign language is not "English with the hands". It's not English at all. Most sign languages have their own grammar, syntax, vocabulary...everything. To someone raised in a primarily signing household, English is as foreign as Japanese.

It quite literally WOULD be as though she'd had no one to speak her language with. Ever.

That's exactly what it said.
