My friend Heather acquired this hand made trinket box that has the name Sgt A.R. Morrow engraved. She'd love to return it to his family if he can be found. We're assuming he was RNZAF, as the box is made from various types of wood including some sourced from an aircraft propeller. And I think the Wireless Telegraphy Station at Waiouru was RNZAF-run back then, wasn't it?
