I was interested to see your reviews by Stanley Jenkins and Peter Longstaff-Tyrell concerning the Sussex frontline.
My father was the son of a Hove surgeon who went to Queensland for his health in 1916. My father ended up on the frontline in New Guinea in 1940.
The irony is that dad was on the frontline of the Battle of Australia and that if his father hadn't been ill, he would have been on the frontline in Hove.
