He arrived in Australia in 1910 after jumping ship and deserting from the Merchant Navy. He enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force hoping this would give him the opportunity to get back to England. Simpson became famous for his work as a stretcher-bearer and as the man with the donkey at Gallipoli before his death at the young age of 22. He used the donkey for carrying water, as well as for transporting wounded men day and night in Monash Valley to the beach on ANZAC Cove. He saved many lives before he met his death from machine gun fire. The War Diary of the 3rd Field Ambulance commended “the excellence of the work performed by Pfc Simpson continuously since landing.” AF 0875 13 The above is an excerpt from a printed story furnished by Lion Bill Sutton. Lion Bill provides the story with each pin that he trades. Bill Sutton (AUS) John Simpson & His Donkey Lion Dave Armstrong (MT) has advised that he has three military pins in the pipeline and is expecting them shortly. Out of tremendous respect we have for Lion Dave and to avoid having him being “stuck” with a lot of pins, we are reserving this space for his pins. As soon as we receive one each for scanning, we will reissue this page and transmit it to you. 85 Jun 2013 FINAL ISSUE SALUTE TO THE ARMED FORCES AF 0879 13 AF 0880 13 Richard Durham (NC) Fred Leach (VA) WI 128th Air Refueling Wing WI 128th Air Control Squadron AF 0881 12 AF 0882 13 AF 0883 13 Brian McKay (WI) Jim Minnich (DE) Jim Newman (VA) WI 32nd Infantry Brigade WI 257th Support Battalion WI 105th Cavalry Regiment AF 0884 13 AF 0885 13 AF 0886 13 AF 0887 13 AF 0888 13 Brian Overturf (WI) Bart Phillips (ID) Bill Prucha (IL) Phil Sharpe (VA) Jerry Townsend (MS) WI Army NG Unit Crest WI 101st Air Cavalry WI 128th Infantry Regiment Combat Readiness Training Center Volk Field ANGB WI 326th Engineers Battalion AF 0890 13 AF 0891 13 Tom Vanlieshout (WI) Cedric Veum (WI) Bob Walker (SC) WI 127th Infantry Regiment WI 32nd Infantry Special Troops Battalion AF 0889 13 WI 120th Field Artillery AF 0892 13 Byron Watkins (KY) WI 115th Fighter Wing A Special Salute to Wisconsin’s Camp McCoy AF 0893 13 Wisconsin Pin Traders WI Army National Guard Unit Patch 85 SALUTE TO THE ARMED FORCES AF 0894 13 AF 0895 13 Ed Barry (TX) Ed Barry (TX) The Congressional Space Medal of Honor General Omar Bradley First Chairman JCS Last 5 Star General AF 0896 13 13 AF 0897 13 Jim Newman (VA) Jim Newman (VA) In Thanksgiving for Those Known In Thanksgiving for Those Unknown A Grateful Nation’s Thanksgiving for Those Known and Unknown Jun 2013 FINAL ISSUE Jun 2013 FINAL ISSUE SALUTE TO THE ARMED FORCES AF 0898 13 AF 0899 13 AF 0900 13 AF 0901 13 Bill Smith (VA) Harry Fulwiler (VA) Jim DeRouchey (TX) Paul Viano (MA) U.S. Coast Guard Honor Guard U.S.A.F.
