During his recent visit to Australia Swiss surveyor and ex-Natmapper August Jenny (Nat Map 1968-69) caught up with other members of the ground marking for Aerodist field parties with whom he had worked; namely, Rom Vassil, John Manning, Oystein Berg, Laurie McLean and Lawrie O’Connor.

The venue was also appropriate to the occasion; The Rialto at 497 Collins Street, Melbourne.
