Personal Stories
My Great Uncle
Beresford Patrick is my great uncle .. he served in the 133 General Transport Company in Bougainville.
As he was about to leave for home he sat under a palm tree to write a letter to his mother and the tree fell on him and he died as a result.
His father was Patrick Francis who also served .. his mother Emily and Brother JB Walsh.
we are very proud of Beresford and remeber him each ANZAC day
