Norm Empson has sent this through to me, and I think it is worth sharing here:
The Summer RSA Review has an item about quote "Vets seven year fight for mates far from finished'.
A Doug Wingfield, aka Scotty, is looking for the remaining 112 ground-crew who went to Vietnam and have not been given their medals.
Contact Scotty Wingfield, PO Box 33-134 Barrington Christchurch 8244, phone 03 337 3644, if you are eligible for a medal and leave it to him.
This is for flights into Vietnam between 1st of December 1962 and 21st of April 1975.
If you want to search his spread sheets and his original research go to his veterans page at the Vietnam War website link:

You will find the link to his research. All Vietnam flights by No. 41 Squadron RNZAF (Version 3) 1 Dec 1962 - 21 Apr 1975.
