He is the author/co-author of numerous published professional and policy documents. He is not a historian nor a past serviceman. In his retirement, he accompanied his father, other veterans of the 1942 Kokoda battles, and their relatives on commemorative tours of the battlefields. He has attended numerous reunions and met many of the 1942 veterans. His father, Alan Hooper, served in 49th btn, Papuan Infantry Battalion, and ANGAU. He served the first 1,000 days without leave - much of it behind enemy lines in a remote jungle. Alan wrote two books on his war experience. He was a youth of the Great Depression. Jay has developed an interest in learning more about the generation of young men who so willingly exposed themselves to the brutality of war. He is at a stage of life where he has the time to digest the contents of his father's vast PNG library.vizualizați mai puține
