This is a pic from Don's book (thanks Don for emailing these pics to me!) which I'm in. Its the last 2 Sqn flight before they shot off to Nowra. I'd like to put some names to the faces, but have forgotten most of them since then I do know that its Spiel on the far left, and Steve Moore and Scott Armour are in there too, but thats about it. I'm in the centre with the 2 Sqn hat on, and the Village People-looking moustache (ahhh those were the days!) So, if anyone does recognise these guys and remembers a name that would be appreciated. Feel free to PM me if not keen on publicly posting names.....Thanks in advance! Attachments:

Is that you with the Magnum P.I. moustache, Jonesey?
The guy behind you looks a bit like Brent Sawyers who i did Basic Engineering with in 1989, ring any bells?

Thanks Don. I thought so. He was a good chap, from Wesport I think, or somewhere over that way. I wonder if he's still in the mob?

Yes Dave it was Brent Sawyer (or Swayer as we called him too!).....We must have shared co-workers quite a bit during that time, despite not being on the same base at the same time...interesting!

Swayer, yes he got that nickname at either GSTS or 4TTS, for his rhythmic side-to-side swaying action as he marched. One day as we were marching to lunch he was the Flight marker. The guy behind him began to sway like Brent. Next minute the entire flight was doing it. Brent had no idea, but we got loads of laughs from people we passed by, all swaying like Brent, haha. Lucky we never came across the Base Warrant Officer or any GSI's.
