FYI below and attached concerning a man who dedicated his life and service to the Army (RAEME, RAInf & RAAChD) and God.
I’ve just been speaking to 216684 LTCOL (ret) (Catholic Father) John ‘Tink’ Tinkler, HQ 1 ATF Vietnam – http://www.vietnamroll.gov.au/VeteranDetails.aspx?VeteranId=1227251 – who is unable to make the dinner but is meeting up with Graeme some time later this year when Graeme visits him. At almost 74 years young, ‘Tink’ is still serving God and his fellow human-beings as Parish Priest of Moama – http://www.wf.catholic.org.au/parishes/moama-org/index.php
I am sure that we all join in wishing Graeme and his family well now and in the future.
Congratulatory messages, reservations for the farewell dinner and all replies should be forwarded to the following as soon as possible:
