@gtwilson Neither did I until a friend mentioned it a few months ago. I found my brother's father-in-law's name on the wall, but I don't know if he's LC Giles, LC Giles or LW Giles. All personnel (and 11 dogs) who participated are named on the wall.
@gtwilson That's about a sixth of it. There's an M113 & a 40 mm Bofors at one end of the wall and a Centurion tank at the other. A separate four-panel display at the M113 end tells the stories of the four Australian recipients of the Victoria Cross in the Vietnam conflict. Here's a pic from Google Maps Street View showing most of one side of the wall.
@sumudu My question was prompted by another user who felt something was out of whack with Blurbybot. Hence my test query.
On their honeymoon in April of 1956, whist driving a pickup towing a small caravan, my parents were stuck behind one of these things for about 20 miles. There was nowhere to pass and Centurion tanks rarely exceed 21 mph.
The second-last name in the the seventh column operated a dairy farm next to ours. He had a rough time coping with the return to civilian life. Now retired from farming, he works for Legacy, a part of the Returned & Services League. Legacy looks after partners and children of deceased service personnel. He has personally intervened to assist both my mother & my mentally-retarded brother.
Thank you, Bill. We salute you.

Wall in the delightful town of Seymour. I'm sitting on the seat of my rollator walker waiting out a sciatica attack. When that's eased off I'll tackle the ither half of the walk.
