Repost from @awmemorial using @RepostRegramApp - It is with great sadness that we share the news of Mr Cyril Allender’s passing. Cyril was a volunteer at the Museum, and had recently celebrated his 100th birthday.
He was cut off from his platoon for 14 days with only a couple of biscuits to eat, and was shot by the Japanese at Kokoda. But Cyril Allender still considered himself to be lucky. “All my life, I’ve had luck,” he said with a smile. “There were 13 of us and we got cut off. We had to fight our way through the bush to try and get in front [of the Japanese]… We got to the Japs when they started to say that they’d had enough and they turned around, so we were lucky that day… It was just one of those things… “You just tried your best to keep yourself alive." For Allender, the memories of the Second World War remained vivid and he never forgot hiding from the Japanese in 1942 as he and his mates fought their way through the jungle to get back to their platoon.
