“This is your Life” at Drummoyne Probus Club
09 Aug 2017
At the Drummoyne Club’s recent meeting Members were entertained by the Clubs oldest member 93-year-old John MacMahon.
The format was a “This is your Life” and John told of his early life growing up in Sydney during the depression, his prowess as a YOYO champion, his Roller skating antics then his enlistment in the Army and transferring to the RAAF where he became an enlisted Officer and flew over 70 sorties over Europe as a Radio/Gunner during WWII.
John gave an insight into his business career after the War and a story of how he woke up one morning to find he had bought a share in a Yacht that he could not sail.
The members were most enthralled and it could be said that only part of the story was told. John still keeps himself active and is a member of a Writers Club.
