I distinctly remember seeing an older woman with a baby on her hip as she stood to the side of the crowd looking longingly at the 40 pound bags of rice being taken away...
Every morning we take 80 volunteers from the carrier to stand all day ... The heat and humidity can be stunning, but they labor all day and not only do not complain, but seem to be almost joyous as they work. Today I saw not only our sailors, but also soldiers from the Australian Army labor all day to ensure that the work gets done.
I have really grown to love the Aussies
In South Australia I was Born
Heave away, haul away
In South Australia, 'round Cape Horn
We’re bound for South Australia
The Pogues
