Albert joined the unit on Timor as a Sapper from 2/11 Field Company Engineers, after the fall of Koepang, in about March 1942.
After the campaign on Timor, he embarked with the unit for Australia aboard the Royal Dutch destroyer “Tjerk Hiddes” on either 11 Dec 1942 or 16 Dec 1942, as the embarkation rolls do not differentiate.
He was discharged as a Sergeant in 2/11 Field Company Engineers on 9 Jun 1948 and had Service No 19345 which generally denotes post WW2 service.
