Add my storyBiography contributed by Robert Kearney
Colin was a National Serviceman who deferred his call-up in order to finish his training as an optician. He was then inducted and after Recruit Training, he was posted directly into 5 RAR, where his Corps Training was conducted. Colin was appointed as a Rifleman in 9 Platoon, C Company and stayed in that role throughout his service. He completed a full tour of duty from 17 February 1969 to 10 March 1970. Colin was a steady, reliable soldier who served his Platoon, Company and Battalion well. - Courtesy of Gary Townsend
