NZ Engineers on Crete

I seek information about the New Zealand Engineer units who served on Crete during that fateful campaign. While I hold deep respect for all the military forces involved, my curiosity is drawn to the individuals within these New Zealand units—their actions, experiences, and contributions during that challenging time. If you have any knowledge or stories about their efforts, I would be grateful to learn more.

 

A start; much information available to go on in the thread here:

2nd New Zealand Division Engineers
