Biography contributed by Faithe Jones

Mr. and Mrs. V. Malycha, of Renmark, have been notified that their son, Sgt. B. J. Malycha has been wounded in action, nd is in hospital in New Guinea. Since this message was received several weeks ago, the soldier has been transferred to an Australian hospital. He was wounded in the right ear. Sgt. Malycha went through the Middle East campaign and received promotion while serving abroad. The soldier has two and a half years' service to his credit and is the second son of the family. He returned from overseas in March this year.
