Dear Adrian,
Sadly, we have received word that, Harry SMITH, passed away on Sunday 20 August 2023 at the Buderim Private Hospital, after a short stay. Harry had not been well for some months and had to be hospitalized.
As we all know, Harry was OC D Coy at the Battle of Long Tan, and served in 2 RAR during the Malayan Emergency, 1 CDO Regt & PTS plus other units.
Funeral information, including Live Streaming details, are still being finalized and will be provided once we get them.
Please join with us in offering our deepest sympathy to those who will mourn the passing of a loved one. Another 6 RAR family member, taken too soon.
LEST WE FORGET
