Orphaned Soldier

A powerful true story of one boy''s fight to survive.

"Tears ran down my face as I knelt beside my bed, clasping my 6-year old hands together, trembling in fear-praying they wouldn''t come to get me."

In Australia, they called it the ''Stolen Generation'', referring to the forced removal of

In New Zealand, we were known as the ''Lost and Unwanted Generation''.

We were orphans, unwanted by our families and left in the hands of The Salvation Army.
