Herbert Snell Very sad news RIP Bruce great knowing and working with you mate. Another Vietnam Vet gone but never forgotten. Herbie
Greg Callander Hi Herbie. I’m unable to find Vet details for Bruce. Can you give me some details for his Policing Memorial Post please?

Herbert Snell He was one of the first group to go to Vietnam as a training officer. I recall he was a member of the Blue Mountains Vietnam Vets group that used to meet at Springwood. He had a few friends from that group would call and see him at Penrith I was the charge room supervisor and he was working in the cell complex I am also a ex RAN so we had a few discussions about service life. Hope that helps you

    Bruce was working on traffic at Petersham in 1964 I think he transferred to Wingham from there.
