@XxDARKNEXUSxX Very possible it was well done and faithful to the book I had read first. Sean Penn was terrific.

There was a rumour that you guys drowned one of the Prime Ministers back in the sixties. @Rugglesby or @Irascible may remember more.

@FrayedBear I was at primary school at the time. Harold Holt. Body was never found, but he did go out in very bad conditions.

@FrayedBear do not fear ameriKKKa shoot them.

@Rugglesby They also were not overly supportive of Gough Whitlam despite him doing nothing about E.Timor and W.Papua.
I guess he did pull the boys out of Vietnam.

@GipsyOfNewSpain We don't know. I don't think the body was ever found. Conspiracy theory had US Navy Seals down for the job.

@FrayedBear Was he the only casualty?

@GipsyOfNewSpain As we don't know how many Seals shot each other Holt was the only one that we know of.

@FrayedBear I was in Qld, we were told it was the Chinese or Russians in a submarine.

@Rugglesby Joe P would spread such propaganda look how he welcomed Pine Gap, American warships and troops. Mid 60's was Cold War era and distraction had to be made from American aggression to further it economic piracy and rape...to say nothing of nuclear fallout from bomb tests.
