The discipline training and friendships made during my 12 months as an RF Cadet are still fondly and strongly embedded in my memory to this very day. I felt proud and privileged to have served and been part of the RF Cadets "Club" I graduated December 1964 to 1 Tpt Pl, RNZASC, Papakura Camp. I was then posted to 19 Air Supply Pl, Fort Cautley and then on to 1 AASO Whenuapai. In 1969-70 I served in South Vietnam with 176 Air Despatch Det RAASC aand Victor 4 1RNZIR . On my return to NZ I was posted to 2/1 RNZIR Burnham Camp as Tpt Pl Sgt. From there I was posted to 3 Movement Control Unit. I took early release in 1984 as a WO Class !.

I am divorced but have a very busy social calendar with my sons and their families with birthday parties, barbqs and dinners together.
