A very special podcast today as we have the honour of talking to a WW2 veteran and one of the last Coastwatchers, Jim Burrowes. Jim takes us through his experience as a Coastwatcher in the Pacific Campaign as we learn more about the Coast Watching organisation that had a significant impact on operations in that campaign.
This is Part 1 of a two part interview with Jim.
