Hi Nephews!
I found this ad in a 1949 edition of "Practical Mechanics" - the premier magazine for the amateur engineer in those distant times! For those of you not familiar with pre decimal UK money, 13/- at day equates to 65p in modern cash, while the Warrant Officer got 25/6 or £1.27p !! I wonder how many took up the offer and became Aussies!!
