Vale: John Rossiter – RAA

Peter Lonergan has advised of the death this morning (20 April 2022) of John Rossiter. John served most of his CMF/Ares career with 41 Battery on the Gold Coast and some time with 5/11 Field Regiment in Brisbane. In the late ‘60s John was Battery Captain of 41 Battery. We believe he also served with 7 Field Regiment in Sydney when he was there for civil employment. John had suffered from dementia and spent his last few years in a dementia facility. John was a knowledgeable officer who related well to the men he commanded.
