Notes 1 shilling British Military Authority banknote - collected by 25577 Gunner EA (Ted) Frost, 2NZEF, WW2, while serving in North Africa; kept in a Kauri tobacco tin. British Military Authority banknote originally issued for use by British troops in North Africa. Ted Frost grew up on a Waikato farm. He enlisted for service in 1940 joining the 7th NZ Anti-tank regiment. He served in Greece (was in one of the last groups to get off Greece), North Africa (wounded at Sidi Rezegh) and Italy. On his discharge from the army Ted bought a dairy farm at Te Hoe in the Waikato. He met and married his wife Honour Marshdale in 1946.
