I thought it would be interesting and worthwhile to ask here whether anyone has any photos, particularly family photoes from fathers, grandfathers, uncles, etc, from WWII showing the NZ Army.
It would be interesting to see what might be out there in family albums that are unseen by the public.
Anything would be welcome, 2nd Division in North Africa, Meditteranean or Italy; 3rd Division in the Pacific, 1st, 4th and 5th Divisions at home, etc. Shots of soldiers, tanks, trucks, armoured vehicles, places, etc.
Please share away, cheers.

The guy in the first photo's name is Noel( written on the back)not sure of his second name.
Is the uniform standard NZ army that the guy on the right in the second photo is wearing?

That's what I was thinking, based on his uniform.
