Tena koutou katoa, I am seeking information about 'Boye' Biddle and his brother Jack Hohua (aka John Hohua Biddle), who both served in Italy with the Maori Battalion. Over the past six years, I have been researching and writing a book on New Zealand's military history. My research website can be viewed at http://www.tumatauenga.webs.com Ideally, I would love to speak with any B Coy veterans who might have known them - any stories or recollections. Boye was from the Waimana then Kutarere areas and became a Ringatu minister following his return from WWII. Jack was from the Ruatoki and then Whakatane areas. Paora Kruger knew them and was going to tell me of some of his memories, however unfortunately, he passed away only weeks prior to my trip to New Zealand (I live in Sydney). If anyone can help, I can be contacted at: kerehona@hotmail.com Best Regards to all. Brent Kerehona (Pukepuke-Ahitapu) BA, MTeach (former Corporal, Australian Army)
