I've asked Ros to put up the signatures of George Heyne. For once we have a match! A perfect match, actually. Betty

George Heyne's signature

Yes, no doubt at all

So the name Robert STEVENS, who the workplace reference was for, is in the handwriting of George HEYNE. Correct?

George HEYNE obviously knew perfectly well it was a false name and probably why too.

It is not illegal to use a false name in Australia as long as it is not done with fraudulent intent, so no laws were broken in this act, but intriguing nonetheless

Somehow I am not surprised about the poetry.
The one short letter from him in the digitised ww2 file shows an elegant hand in the writing and an educated turn of phrase with careful punctuation
