Date:1919

Description:This verse appears to refer to The "Dinks" - the New Zealand Rifle Brigade that served at Brocton Camp. The wording suggests they will not be stationed there much longer. They arrived at Brocton in September 1917 and left after almost two years having made a big impression on the local population. The Reserve Depot trained new recruits as replacements to a very high standard.
