my mum and dad said that it was a complete immoral injustice of the navy and rsl to be encouraging single girls to those cocktail parties on ship when they did nothing to aid their fundraising and was no entertainment value for the girls or anyone. we did not get to meet celebrities or even nice people. all the men were mostly introduced to were married old men who were boring and dull.

I didn’t have time for being raped the way I was. someone should have stopped that from happening, and been more helpful to me meeting the RIGHT sort of men.
