Sick Parade.

If you know someone who is a bit crook, 
let us know so we can give them a shout out..

 

 

 

Mal “Bugs” Rose.

 

Stew Bonett advises that “bugs” is in hospital at Port Macquarie. He has kidney and heart problems as well as dementia. His wife, Beth, expects him to be there for at least two weeks and then he will go to a nursing home. Bugs was a Framie and did a few trips to Vietnam as a loady on the Caribou. His first tour was from Nov 1965 to Jan 1966, when he returned home for a little while after some mix up with a certain fridge, then when all was forgiven, he was back again from July 1966 to April 1967. On returning to Australia, he was posted to 36 Sqn which had the old A model Herc and he did another trip back to Vung Tau, on a Medivac in Oct 1968.

 

Bugs turned 76 in Feb this year. We all wish you well mate!!

 

 

 

 

Frank Moylan

 

Frank’s wife, Colleen advises that Frank (right) is not too well and has lung cancer with other complications. Frank was a Sumpie and was posted to RTFV Vung Tau from Sept 1964 to April 1965.

 

Frank turned 78 in Nov this year.

 

 

 

 

James Greenwood.

 

We heard from Jim, who still has his sense of humour. He says “I just spent the last week in hospital, diagnosed with throat cancer. To add to that I have brain tumors and am undergoing radiation therapy".

 

He says: "I don't glow in the dark ------ yet. Still mobile.”

 

Good luck mate!!

 

 

 

Tom Mills.

John “Sambo” Sambrooks advises:  “I met with Tom Mills yesterday he was at the Wesley Hospital having blood tests (Mon 07Dec2015). His iron count is low and his protein count is low and he is not able to take iron tablets. They have to get his iron levels up so he can have more Kemo. Tom is looking good and staying positive

 

Tom, who turned 69 in November this year, was a Framie and was posted to 35 Sqn in Vung Tau from Nov 1970 (the day he turned 24) until Nov 1971. He was home just in time for his 25th birthday.”

 

We’re all thinking of you mate – get well!!
