Great account Allan,

I am currently doing a university assignment on 'Place Based pilgrimages', and have chosen the Kokoda trail (which i wish to do one day). With you permission i would like to use some of the information and quotes you have provided, i can assure you that it will not be printed or viewd by the public.

Also Geoff, might we possibly be related? My name is Patrick Hardie, son of Brian Hardie If not i was just checking haha

Cheers
