Our page 3 girl this issue is the delightful Chrissy Hart, spotted here holidaying in the Canadian Rockies back in 2012.
Christina Martin, as she was back then, joined the RAAF in 1987, at the ripe old age of 19 and after Rookies, was posted to 6 RAAF Hospital at Laverton to undergo 6 months training as a Medical Assistant. She then spent a further 15 months at 6 RAAF “on the job training.”
In 1989 she was posted to Williamtown, with a brief attachment to 3 RAAF Hosp at Richmond, and then in 1990 it was off to Darwin where she stayed for 3 years.
Chrissy (right) just 21 and loving the flying suit.
While in the north, she led a fairly quiet life and did nothing out of the ordinary apart from:

Just the sort of things all healthy young girls get up to……

In 1993, after completing her 6 years, she elected to discharge and spent a year in the UK and Europe backpacking and visiting relatives.
Writing up nursing notes at 3 RAAF in 1989.
She returned to Oz in 1994, joined the RAAF Reserve (21 Sqn in Melbourne) where she met “the man”, got married and started a family.
She completed her Nursing degree in 2011 and now works with Western Health at the Footscray and Sunshine Hospitals in Melbourne.

Chrissy on Anzac Day 1997, with her Grandfather and Great Grandfather’s medals.
The photo was taken after the service at the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne. Chrissy was in 21 Squadron (Reserves) based at RAAF Williams at Laverton at the time.
The British service medals she is proudly wearing belonged to her Grandfather, who served in the Wiltshire regiment and saw active service in WWII in British Palestine (now Israel) and India. Her Great Grandfather served in the Somerset Light Infantry and was killed in action in the Somme, March 1918.

Did you know??
The 26th December was traditionally known as St Stephen's Day, but today it is more commonly known as Boxing Day. This expression came about because money was collected in alms-boxes placed in churches during the festive season. This money was then distributed during to the poor and needy after Christmas.

Someone sent us this, but unfortunately, we can’t find who did so we don’t know where, when or why it was taken. Can anyone help??

A couple was Christmas shopping at the mall on Christmas Eve and the mall was packed. As the wife walked through the mall she was surprised to look up and see her husband was nowhere around. She was quite upset because they had a lot to do. Because she was so worried, she called him on her mobile phone to ask him where he was. In a calm voice, the husband said, "Honey, you remember the jewellery store we went into about 5 years ago where you fell in love with that diamond necklace that we could not afford and I told you that I would get it for you one day?" The wife choked up and started to cry and said, "Yes, I remember that jewellery store." He said, "Well, I'm in the bar right next to it."
