I would say not. I'll ask him next time I see him, which is reasonably frequently lately.. BUT I have known others who lived with the Aboriginals in the Central Desert, underwent the painful initiation ceremonies, and fought and hunted with spears.... One is now a Jehova's Witness in Kalgoorlie....he went from desert warrior to preacher... Now, I bet none of them were issued a "Certificate", lol, but the fact that they lived bears testiment to their acceptance by their tribes..... ....and the "system" recognised them as Aboriginals out there on payday....what more do you want?
