QX1951 CLARKE, Dodd Sheridan Dodd was my uncle and I am trying to fill in some of his service details. I have his Service and Casualty Papers but they raise more questions than they answer. I have the following information: Taken on strength 2/11 Fd Coy 10 Jan 1941 Marched into 7 MD ex 1 Md 22 Apr 1941 Embarked for Overseas Service 8 Dec 1941 Disembarked Koepang , Timor, 12 Dec 1941 from Westralia/Zealandia Missing Timor 22 Apr1942 Reported not missing, with unit, well 15 Jun 1942 Embarked Betano, Timor Nov 1942 Disembarked Darwin date unknown (7 Nov 1942?) Like many of his mates, he did not speak of his experiences but the family believed he was evacuated by (USA ?) submarine. I have perused the book “Independent Company” by B J Callinan and some of the information contained therein indicates that my uncle was part of this unit Embarked for Overseas Service 8 Dec 1941 Ships used were Westralia and Zealandia. 1. Given the limited information, would it be safe to assume that he was a member of Sparrow Force or the 2/40 Pioneer Bn? 2. Any suggestions as to how I can find out how he was evacuated? Regards John
