LOST  NASHOS

 

This site is dedicated to those National Servicemen who are looking for lost mates from when they served.


I wonder if you can help me find a missing friend.I am happy that if anyone knows him to have my number passed onto him I am sure that he will give me a call. I last saw him in Melb June 69 he was on his way to Portsea to do a barmans course(I think).
I have some letters that he sent to me from exercises up north in 1967. He was called up in South Australia.
I would love to catch up and our families get together.
I have tried the telephone directory,the electoral roll ,local member,the blac berets web site.
He was with the amoured vehciles at Wacol in 68 I have put his no etc for you. I could not work out how to get into the missing Nasho page. I am afraid that I am technically challenged. :-(
his no
4718529 Tpr Brace M. (Michael)
B sqn 2 Cav Reg

I would say from 67 to 69

Any help or clues would be appreciated I did try the Salvos too.

My father did National Service somewhere between 1954 and 1958. He is trying
to find a pal that he served with. I notice his name is not on the list on
your web page - is there some other register or list?
 
His name was/ is Malcolm Bernard Mason from Sydney - he thinks he was in a
RAEME unit because he was a tool maker.
 
any help would be appreciated

This is a tragedy I hope you can help to resolve.

Yesterday, I was talking to Rusty Priest and Bob Bushby. Rusty informed us that he and Concord Hospital are searching for the daughter of:-

2782149 Gnr Philip Charles NORRIS. DoB 19.02.45 at Auburn NSW.
National Serviceman with 1 Fd Regt, 20.05.66 to 06.09.66 Sth Vietnam.
Suffered a severe head wound and medivac back to Aust. He has been institutionalized ever since.
He is currently in ‘H’ Ward Concord Hospital.

Sadly,this man appears on various memorials as dead from wounds received in battle. He was even shown on the memorial in Canberra and had to be removed. If any one knows the whereabouts of his daughter please contact Nurse Elizabeth Miles on 02 9556 9573, ‘H’ Ward Concord Hospital.

The daughter's birth name is Mary Elizabeth NORRIS, she may have married a chap called Clifford John BROWN.

This matter is urgent.
You can contact the writer on 0417 621 411
