This must have been back in 2010, if not before.

 Spent a few hours with Quarter-Master Bill Reid at his home.

A wonderful time along with Jimmy Hunter, Paul Branson and Brian Thomson.

 The Parliament Mace.

 I did not know about Brigadier-General John A. McGinnis that he passed away in February of 1999.  I didn't know him well, but I remember driving him in his Ford LTD along with another dignitary.  I can't remember who it was, but we were stuck in traffic along Queen Street and he suggested we go to Adelaide as it is a one way street.  That is all that I can recall.
