Charles Thomas Green worked for the Railways as a tablet porter - he held up the necessery token to a passing engine driver to show that the line ahead was clear.
Charles enlisted in the NZ 24 Infantry Battalion and was posted as missing after the Greek Campaign of 1941. He was later announced as being a Prisoner of War.
He is later listed as having died by accident while a Prisoner of War. He is buried in Klagenfurt War Cemetery, Austria.
I wish I could find more about him. His story is as worthy of bringing to attention as that of any other soldier.
