Looking for James Cecil RULE ex 4RAR
Hi, my name is Gordon Hurford and I am part of the organising committee for a reunion of the Class 1/65 from OTU Scheyville. One of our fellow graduates was James Cecil RULE who served in 4RAR in Vietnam in 1968/69.
Next year is 60 years since we entered Scheyville for training and since we were all NSM we all turn 80 years of age at some time in the first 6 months of 2025. Hence, we have decided to have a celebration reunion on the Sunshine Coast in July 2025.
All our efforts to contact Jim have failed and we have no idea where he might be living.
I thought that he may have been a member of the 4RAR Association now or at some time in the past and, if he was, maybe there is the chance that you might be able to help in some way.
If you do have a contact for him, please feel free to pass my details to him with a request for him to contact me please. It is our hope that all graduates at least get to know that the reunion is happening.
Merry Christmas and all the best for 2025.
Kind regards
Gordon Hurford

Sincerely hope you find your man. Sometimes it helps to place an advert in their hometown newspaper – some relative or friend might have a clue.
At the reunion you might find some Vietnam veterans who have not been awarded the Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal for whatever reason. There has been a fresh interpretation regarding the eligibility criteria and they may now be eligible.
