After Vietnam
It was a pleasure and an honour to have
designed the banner entertainers march
under on Anzac Day.
The Forces Entertainment Association (FEA)
invites all those entertainers who entertained
our troops in theatres of war post Korea, to
join us on this special day.
Jim Bourke OAM is the founder of Operation Aussies Home,
a group of Vietnam Veterans dedicated to finding the remains
of the six Missing in Action from the Vietnam War.
The remains of Richard Parker, Peter Gillson, David Fisher
and John Gillespie have been found and returned to
Australia and their families.
The plane along with the remains of Michael Herbert and Robert
Carver has been found. This is wonderful news for the
families. The repatriation will be at Richmond Airbase on the
31st August, commencing 1000 hours.
Sylvia became a member of OAH having been at the Phang
Rang Airbase with an ABC Concert Party on the 3rd November
1970, the night these two men went missing.
May they Rest in Peace.
