Stavros wrote to the Adelaide Advertiser on 14 June 1940 an article regarding the reduction of days a person could work for the betting industry and the fact they he had tried to enist but had been declined.

However according to his enlistment information for record SX35097, indicates that he served the duration of the war. A bit confusing.
