Phil was a member of the July '64 intake not the Jan '64. I passed out with the July '64 intake and only knew Phil from Nirimba. A quiet but very affable, good natured all round guy. Sadly I missed the combined reunion of the '64 intakes.

Vale Phil, RIP you have kept your last watch, rest on your oars and may you have fair winds and following sea.
