ADG Basic Course 25

 
ADG Basic Course 25
I have just discovered your website and must say it is a great site and you have done a tremendous job.

While looking through the course photographs I was surprised to find one of myself.  Your have it listed as Course 29 but I am fairly sure we were course 25. I looked at the photographs on either side and dont remember any of the trainees. Course 25 was the first course conducted in 1977. I injured my knee two weeks before the end of course and was removed from the course which is why it has suspended next to my name. I was still at the school when course 26 began about May 1977. Fred Holtman had transfered from Laverton in December and course 26 was his first offical course as instructor.  I recognised the trainees in the photo, in fact I remember sharing a room with Hurley. I was discharged from the airforce while this course was running.

Your photographs certainly brought back some happy memories and I remember my time at GDTF with fondness.

I hope this information assists you. Keep up the great work.

Cheers

John Bentley
