Grad was Aug 69 and stayed in Waiouru till Xmas then posted to Trentham. Spent 73 & 74 in Singapore, back to ATG till Xmas 77, then Burnham till Dec 80, then Ngaruawahia till Dec 82, back to ATG again till July 84 when off to Sinai till April 85 and left Army from LF Comd in Aug 85. Went to Otago Uni as Catering Manager 86-90, then Southern Cross Hotel 90-93. Have worked for various Catering Contract Companies since then and am now living and working in Australia. Currently Sydney, but fully expect that to change in the not too distant future. Happily married to Dot. We always have plenty of room, so if you're in the area, look us up. Can be contacted via email dotnrodg@optusnet.com.au Left Sydney, went to Cape Tribulation with Dot for her career move. Did a stint in Solomons with RAMSI for a six month contract, then back to Far North Queensland. We now live in Port Douglas where Dot works for Outrigger Resorts & Hotels, while I travel each day to Cairns to work at the Shangri-La Hotel Marina.
