DECK, Lieut Col H O’B, NZMC, is to take over control of the King George V Hospital at Rotorua on 1 June, from Colonel Stuart NEWALL, CB, who has been honorary commandant of the institution since its establishment. Col Deck’s control is to be temporary as Col D S WYLIE of the Medical Corps is to be officer in permanent charge of the hospital.
The youngest member of the Auckland Returned Soldiers’ Assn is a lad of about 16 ½ years of age. He is a native of Australia and enlisted in the Australian forces about two years ago. He got as far as Egypt and after being over 18 months on active service, he was discharged on account of his youth. The boy, who looks about two years older than his years, has come to NZ with the object of enlisting in the Dominion force if possible. He was admitted as a member of the Returned Soldiers’ Assn this week.
