Djinnang Reunion, 2014.

 

Once again the always well-attended Djinnang reunion was held at the Queensland Public Service Club in Brisbane, this time on Saturday the 31 May.  The Teller for the Association, Dave Tape, told us they had 120 people at the reunion, many as usual from interstate, and even though the mustering finished in 1991, the pride in what they achieved all those years ago and the strong sense of the camaraderie that still exists amongst them is amazing.

 

We’ve included a bunch of photos from the reunion and to make them load quicker we have ‘crunched’ them. You can see and/or download the HD version of each photo by clicking on the crunched copy.

 

Part of the bunch of revellers.

 

 

 

 

The Djinnang association is open to all ex RAAF Telegs, Telsops, Tprinops, Telstechs etc. In (about) 1976, the Telegs, Telsops and Tprinops musterings were amalgamated into the Commsop mustering. Some Telegs moved to the Sigsop mustering. Most operators that moved to the new CommsoP mustering retained their old mustering name until about mid 1980’s where they had to all become Commsop’s. Basic Commsop (COMMunicationS OPerator) Courses were trained at Laverton between approximately 1976 until 1991when the Edpop (Electronic Data Processer OPerator) and Commsop musterings were amalgamated into what is now known as the Ciscon (Communications Information Systems CONtroller) mustering

The Tape family has a firm grip on the Association, David is the Treasurer and Deb is the Secretary. Does make one wonder about the new 500SEL Benz parked in their driveway!!!
