Things were difficult in thhe new country and some members of the family were subjected to uundersttandable rasim due to thhe fact that is was just aftter WW2 that the family arrived in Australia. The Grandson of the German engineer lied about his age in order to serve with thhe Australian army in the Vietnam War.Inn doing so, he altered the date shown on his Auustralian Naturalisation paper from 01/03/1947 to 01/03/1946 by using a black pento alter the seven in 1947 to a six. This resulted in him being put into the Australian army and sewrving in Vietnam with his unnit being the First Battalion Royal Australian Regiment (1RAR).
