WORLD WAR II : DECEMBER 1941 - RECOVERY 1954
The story from Book 4 continues the story of airmail between England and Australia during the Japanese involvement in the war, the period when there was no usual service between England and Australia and the re-establishment of that service.
The story of mail carried on the Empire and Horseshoe Routes during WWII and the re-establishment of services with Britain at the end of the war. These books include a detailed history of the involvement of Australian military personnel in the war and the carriage of mail to and from them. There is much more to the story than the airmail concession available to Australian servicemen. Much of the story is about the difficulty of getting the mail from front line areas to the airline terminal – frequently it is a land, sea/air service.
