The famous Gill sightings of 1959 - 60 years ago on 26 June

Sixty years ago on 26 June 1959 something extraordinary occurred in the then Australian protectorate Papua New Guinea.
See these links to some of my previous engagements with this fascinating story.  On a personal level I had met William (Bill) Gill and found him to be a most impressive man and very credible as a witness.  26 June also resonates with me as its my birthday.
So to celebrate a great person and a remarkable experience examine the 2 stories at this link:
