8RAR 1A NAKED.JPG (16532 bytes) This page of photos was sent to us by our Aussie 8 RAR Team member, Rusty Morley.  I want you all to know that he profusely apologized for showing Archie Meers butt to the world - (why is it that I find that hard to believe?). Archie and the guys had met up with the tanks after a track, and hadn't had a wash for awhile! 

Just for general info - the 8th RAR trained with our Trackers at BJWS.   It shows!  These photos are circa 1968.

8RAR 1B ARCHIE.JPG (17161 bytes) Nui Dat - where Archie is at least partially clothed, sitting on home-made sandbags outside his tent. This was at the main Australian Base Camp at Nui Dat.
8RAR 2A TRAJAN.JPG (13243 bytes) This photo shows Mike Connelly with his Tracker dog Trajan.
8RAR 2B SICCORO.JPG (13308 bytes) Here's a great shot of Rusty and his Tracker dog Julian.
8RAR 2C AUST.JPG (12317 bytes) At the "Tracker Wing" - Rusty is standing with Dog Handler Cpl. Bill Jones at Ingleburn, Australia.  We're willing to bet that Cpl. Jones was also a "graduate" of the Malay and Borneo operations!
8RAR 2D PATCH.JPG (17608 bytes) This is the unofficial patch of the 3RAR, 9RAR and 8RAR Trackers.   Does anyone know the story behind this logo?

8RAR 4 BEAR.JPG (20936 bytes) Here's Rusty with the Team's mascot - Rachel, the Baby Asian Honey Bear.   A special Thank You, to Rusty and all of our Aussie Trackers for all you did then - and all you do now!
