Vale Three Remarkable Australian Veterans
In the last three weeks, the nation received news that three remarkable ww2 veterans have died. Their service and sacrifice helped shape our nation's history.
Reginald James Chard OAM, Australia's last surviving Kokoda Track veteran, passed away peacefully on 24 July, aged 102. His passing marks the end of an extraordinary chapter in the story of the Kokoda campaign and those who fought to defend Australia.
Raymond "Ray" Merrill DFC died aged on the 16th of July aged 103, just weeks before his 104th birthday, following a distinguished wartime career as a RAAF Bomber Command tail gunner. He flew 36 operations over Europe and played a vital role in the D-Day deception operation, Operation Glimmer. A State Funeral will be held to honour his remarkable service.
We also farewell Angas Hughes, South Australia's last known Bomber Command veteran. He survived 31 missions, a fiery aircraft crash and seven months as a prisoner of war in Germany before returning home. He too will be honoured with a State Funeral.
We honour the courage, resilience and sacrifice of these three men, and extend our deepest condolences to their families, friends and all who knew them.
Lest we forget.
