Hello Brian,
Ken and I were advised this afternoon by Mary-Ellen, Tony’s wife of Tony’s death on Monday. He was in the mid-year intake 0f 66. He passed as the result of a stroke. His funeral will be held next Tuesday at 10:30am at their local Catholic Church, details of which we will confirm later.
Love Lorraine and Ken Brinckman xx
Anthony Richard Fletcher R43292, July 66 Intake
Tony’s Vietnam Service consisted of 4 x Vung Tau trips in HMAS Sydney in 1970/71.
Condolences to Mary-Ellen, family and friends in the sad passing of Tony. Another of our Chippies gone too soon.
RIP Tony, your watch is done.
I didn't serve with Tony, he joined RANATE a few weeks after I graduated, but he was a MOBI and a Chippy, so he was alright in my books... 
Another MOBI/ Chippy taken too young... 
your voyage is done... 
R.I.P.
