Episode two continues to deal with Davis’ trademark grit that is introduced in the first podcast. He overcomes a terrible ACL knee football injury and develops a love of running. His physical fitness and never-say-die attitude stands him in good stead in the seemingly impossible challenges Vietnam throws at him.
As well, his academic prowess and weakness for members of the opposite sex are introduced and an affinity with Errol Flynn who attended the same school as he did in Hobart. It also deals with his growing restlessness in Australia and the attraction of South East Asia. We look briefly at the fall of Singapore in 1942 and the powerful emotions he experiences when he steps off the plane at Paya Lebar or Singapore Airport in September, 1964. The Vietnam adventure is about to begin.
