In the first part of this article, Brigadier Fuller described the involvement in dentistry and subsequent distinguished military career of Lieutenant General Lord Freyberg VC. Describing his own association with the General, commencing in 1940 when Director of Dental Services with the New Zealand Expeditionary Force in Egypt, Brigadier Fuller outlined his own career up to and including the War. He concluded with his repatriation home because of illness in 1945, where he found his Masterton practice severely damaged in the 1942 earthquake.
