Hi Allan... 
I don't have any record of a 'Dave Mathews' in the July 1977 Intake, nor a few Intakes either side of that one...
If you can get us some more/ correct information, we'll be happy to give Dave a topic of his own, and the send off he deserves...

If it's the Dave Mathews that I am thinking of he was one hell of a nice guy. Tall Skinny blonde Guy. Well in '86 anyway at the time he was a PO
Worked for me and probably PC Beard at Cerberus in the chippies shop. An absolute perfectionist. I remember that he came from SA and at the time was livin off base at Somers.
Des Kingston was there at the at time as well.
RIP Dave

I just checked the intake list for July 1977 and noticed his name was not there. I can confirm he was definitely a member of the July 77 intake.
As far as my memory serves me he served in Stalwart, Cerberus, Creswell and commissioned Melbourne (FFG 05)
