Hey I'm not sure what he means by "the 6th battalion was the next to tour it was me who drew the card"
but just in case anyone was wondering "We did Canungra, Shoalwater before we left." refer to millitary training bases in Queensland, Australia.
Also from the second verse, an SLR is a "self loading rifle"...
And just to clear it up is the "God almighty roar" an airstrike or poor Frankie's landmine?

@samadamas could the "card" reference be in regards to conscription? Which was drawn from a ballot.
