Norm the Upper picture is much later than the 60”s.... I went through in 68 and was reassigned there untill Jan 71 when I went to stumps. Although 3 of the newer recruit baracks were built, they sat unused until VN returnee’s started using them in mid 1970. The two newer baracks along the Grinder had not been built, or for that matter even broken ground on last I was there in 71.......
