Change of heart

-

IT must be very heartwarmi­ng for the family of Teddy Sheean to see the groundswel­l of public support for him to be awarded a posthumous VC for his gallant and unfortunat­ely fatal action in WWII. Hopefully Prime Minister Morrison and Defence Minister Reynolds will have a change of heart and reverse their decision, a decision that went against the Defence Honours and Awards Appeals Tribunal recommenda­tion to make the award.
