 To alleviate the boredom, the men of 220 Radar Station regularly travelled to Tolga, Atherton and Mareeba to the picture shows.A tennis court was constructed at the station during 1944 and cricket matches and table tennis tournaments between RAAF and Army units also helped to pass the time.Operation of 220 Radar Station ceased on 7 December 1944 and during the month the unit commenced packing for its move to Townsville.
