    • I am researching Michael Canty and I found a reference that his name was on the Troopers ABW Memorial in Invercargill. I looked for a Roll of Honour on the web , without success. I did find that there were 24 names. I found a video where the 2 panels of names were show, but the quality was poor, I managed to transcribe some names (and guessed the others!)
      Do you have a list of the 24 names? Do you have photos of the 2 panels? Do you have anyone who can photograph these panels? Public - Kevin - Researcher - 27 February 2023 - https://youtu.be/RK0FMsEzrJ8
