Encounter - The Ruapehu Affair
Television (Full Length) – 1976
4 Sep 2022 - 06.36pm
Intriguing story which I'd not heard before. That it was resolved relatively amicably, and the 'rebels' reinstated is a tribute to our democracy which in this case the needs of the men took precedence over inflexible military law. This certainly would never have happened in the fascist countries.
