Operating out of Grik, on Gunong Besar. Dropped in by Sycamore then shanks pony to to top of the Gunong. First trip with Murray Ure, think he shoved off on R&R in Borneo after that. Lucky sod!

Air drop at Gunong Besar Feb 1959.

We also went on sub-detachments to places like Sintok. Here's a couple of pics.

Dinner at Sintok 1958.

Me and Pete Riley, at Malacca (not Morib by the way that was a different detachment). We were surveying for the new camp - Bukit Terhenderak, I think it was called. Acres and acres of brown, cleared land not a tree to be seen.
