Kaunitz

was an United States Marine stationed in Sydney for part of World War II.
When there was an explosion in the harbour, he headed for his base. On his way, Kaunitz met Corporal Jed Allum. Together they heard the USS Chicago return fire. Ten minutes later, they reported for duty and were told to stand steady.
A sergeant arrived and told the men to stand down. Kaunitz, Allum and the rest of the men worked to pull debris and bodies out of the water. (PROSE: Hymn of the City)
