Diggers return home after 42 years

Article from: AAP


THE remains of two Australian soldiers killed during the Vietnam war have returned to Australia, 42 years after their deaths.

A RAAF Hercules transport aircraft touched down in Darwin after flying the remains of Lance Corporal Richard "Tiny" Parker, 24, and Private Peter Gillson, 20, from Hanoi.

A defence spokesman said the plane would fly on to the Richmond air base in Sydney tomorrow for the official repatriation ceremony.

Corporal Parker and Private Gillson were killed on November 8, 1965 during a battle in Dong Nai province, east of Saigon.

Intense enemy fire stopped repeated attempts to retrieve their bodies.

Although their mates reluctantly withdrew when ordered, they never forgot.

A search conducted by the group Operation Aussies Home located their remains earlier this year.

The crucial piece of information came from a former Vietcong soldier who revealed that the bodies had been buried in a trench at the battle site and not moved since the war ended.

Veterans Affairs Minister Bruce Billson said the stopover in Darwin today would allow family members time for private reflection ahead of the official welcome home ceremony.

Four other Australian servicemen remain missing in Vietnam.
