There were at least 82 members of his Academy Class.
This Group were Attested on 3 March 1958
They should have been Constable 1st Class on 3 March 1964
They should have been Senior Constables by March 1968
and Sergeant 3rd Class by March 1974.
This man pre dates my ‘Stud Books’ by one year – thus I have no further information, at this time, on him.
There is ‘No Find’ on various Searches for him.

  • I wonder if he left to join up as the war in Vietnam was at it’s height. He may have used another name.

    • No he did not enlist in the war.
      The injury sustained in ‘car 1’ high speed Police chase stopped his career and caused serious spinal injury.
