John Laffin and his wife, Hazelle, came to this country from Australia 25 years ago.
Both came from families with a strong military tradition and served in the Pacific in World War II, John as a soldier and Hazelle as a nurse. Later, John became a military historian and author with the help and encouragement of Hazelle, who assumed the role of ' Girt Friday '.
Both the Laffins feel much compassion for the soldiers of two eras who sacrificed their tomorrow for our today.
In Back to the Battlefields they explain how they keep an act of faith with the servicemen of both world wars year after year, and why we should remember their sacrifice on Armistice Sunday. Written by JOHN LAFFIN AND HAZELLE LAFFIN Readers JENNY KEE
