Re: CJ Muldoon D Coy second tour VNam

Sorry I did not see your post earlier, but here is what I know. Colin was posted to 3 Section, 10 Platoon, D Company, 5 RAR on 24 Sept 1969 and returned to Australia with the Battalion on 10 March 1970 aboard HMAS Sydney. We believe that Colin died in 1974 but do not have a date of death.

Re: Missing member

The only other information I have on Colin is that on the list of soldiers returning to Australia aboard the HMAS Sydney, he was detailed as having his destination, 5 Fourth St, Lithgow.
I also note from the AWM website, he was born in Lithgow on 19 June 1948.
In Vietnam he served in 1st Australian Reinforcement Unit from 3 Sep 1969 to 23 Sep 1969 before joining D Company 5RAR on 24 September and remaining with us until we arrived in Sydney on 10 March 1970.
