Compared with photos of today’s sailors, only one person is wearing a medal.
that was one helluva trip in 1970.

Come on Penny name them, some very fond memories there!!!
ARD Pat Haddock and Lt Jones. GSM with Borneo clasp and eventually the Malay Peninsula clasp. Hickleton for Pat anyway.
By the way fullas,
What ever happened to “fish” Haddock. Havnt seen him since we were Bro Buffs
in 1980’s. Am I to assume he has long “crossed the bar” ?
Fish and another sparker, Sam Tilton (RIP) were responsible for me joining the Buff
in 1969..@ Devonport Buffalo Hall.. Fond memories
Fish is actually in Deloraine in Tasmania. A few weeks ago, he was in briefly in Palmerston North and is now back home. He called in to see me a couple of times whilst he was here last time. and we caught up, and had some good laughs. It was the first time we have been in contact with him since 1963/64.

Bill,
I believe that Fish Haddock is living in Launceston, Tasmania. He is on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/patrick.haddock.35
