Greetings and Salutations to All my Kith and Kin and All the Ships in Outer Space:
Back in January, it was announced that my friend, ANTHONY WILLIAM PAHL, was awarded the ORDER OF AUSTRALIA, the highest award bestowed by that nation.
He is the creator and owner/operator of the INTERNATIONAL WAR VETERANS' POETRY ARCHIVES, has published much of my own work, and has even visited me here at the Armed Forces Retirement Home.
A few days ago, Anthony Pahl, with his wife, Maria, went to Govenment House in Adelaide, South Australia to be formerly inducted into the Order of Australia.
