Good Afternoon. 

Ted Boltong (6RAR 65-71), (a mate of 46 years who I had the honour of serving with in the RAE (A-Res) after my time with 3RAR) passed away on the morning of the 22nd Feb. after a long battle with that insidious disease Alzheimer’s.

I thought it appropriate that the Association representing the Regiment he served with and spoke so highly of should know of his passing.

I have also forwarded a copy of this e-mail to the 6 RAR Victorian Representative as I believe Ted held this position at one time.

There are no details regarding funeral arrangements or family wishes regarding the service at this stage.

Duty First.   Regards, Kevin Moss.
