I have just been notified that Ron McLean passed away on Thursday night at Greenslopes Hospital in Brisbane after a long battle with Cancer, Ron lived in Stanthorpe Qld.

Ron was seriously WIA in action on the 14th Oct 1965 during our first trip to the “Iron Triangle”, Ron was shot 4 times in the stomach and shoulder, we were sure Ron would not make it, but after spending up to a year in hospital Ron recovered to lead a long and happy life.

Another Warrior has passed out through the wire for the last time.
