ANZAC Footy match is in Spring edition of Vietnam Veterans' Spring issue of TPI Chin Up magazine

The Vietnam Swans ANZAC Friendship Match has been given a re-run in the current Spring issue of the Vietnam Veterans’ TPI Chin Up magazine.

The magazine has reprinted the Welcome Address from the Vietnam Swans National President, Phil Johns, under the heading, ANZAC Day and football (as well as a letter praising the service of Wide Eyed Tours, a travel company part owned by the Vietnam Swans’, Travis Fennell).

The 2011 ANZAC Friendship Match is expected to be considerably bigger than this year’s match. The Hong Kong Dragons have already accepted an invitation from the Swans to play in next year’s match. Additionally, Dick “Johnno” Johnston shall also attend. Dick is particularly special as he was one of the guys who played football in Vung Tau during the War. Further,  he played for 2AOD (2nd Advanced Ordnance Depot) which was the team that won the two 1968 premierships that were up for grabs. b-i-g.
