Name MADDEN, JULIAN GEORGE Service Royal Australian Air Force Service Number 24328 Date of Birth 19 Apr 1915 Place of Birth CHARTERS TOWERS, QLD Date of Enlistment 18 Jul 1940 Locality on Enlistment CAIRNS Place of Enlistment CAIRNS Next of Kin MADDEN, ELIZABETH Date of Discharge 17 Nov 1945 Rank Flight Sergeant Posting at Discharge 1 Reserve Personnel Pool WW2 Honours and Gallantry None for display Prisoner of War No Julian recalls Eddie Johnson, his cousin at Jarvesfield, about 10 miles distant, offered to teach him how to play tennis using the one and only ball he possessed. Gently Eddie hit the ball and Julian gave it an almighty swipe, sending it over the fence and into a water-lily lagoon. There endeth the lesson! The farm was sold and the family moved into Ayr "a small, dusty, bindi town" where Julian attended the State School. He claims he was a dunce and only wagged it a couple of times but obviously he had personality as he was elected school captain. Julian worked firstly as a motor spare parts salesman and then as farmhand for his sister Florrie and her husband Bill Ferguson. In the crushing season with a team of six Clydesdales Julian carted 4 tons of cane at a time from the farm to the Ayr side of the old Burdekin bridge then loaded it on to railway trucks which held eight tons. It was hard work but he loved the horses and had some exciting times with the railway trains! In 1934 Julian went to stay with relatives in Cairns and felt he had found heaven! He decided not to return to Ayr and found a job as accountant with a motor firm. Although he knew little about the work he was determined to succeed. With help from a public accountant he worked days, nights - weekends too and stayed with the firm until the outbreak of war. Julian was President and now Honorary Life Member of the Committee on the Aging, Meals on Wheels, Respite Care, etc and was Vice President of the Blue Nursing Association until its incorporation with Nambour. He and Beth are patrons of the 400 member Central Sunshine Coast Senior Citizens' Club as well as several sporting bodies. Julian has won many awards for his work such as being named a Paul Harris Fellow by Rotary and in 1993 he received the Premier's Award for outstanding service. Press clipping " |
