18.01.2022 In memory of the five diggers who were killed in action during the Battle of Nui Le on 21 September 1971 the last battle fought by Australians in South Vietna...m before the final withdrawal of the task force. Soldiers of B Company and D Company, 4RAR/NZ, fought an intense battle against a large enemy force in the north of Phuoc Tuy province. The 33 North Vietnamese Army Regiment defended their bunker systems and then attacked D Company for several hours. The enemy showed an unwillingness to fight on, however, disengaging just as the ANZACS were running low on ammunition. The fallen were: Keith Kingston-Powles (24, QLD); Roderick Sprigg (21, WA); James Duff (21, Vic); Ralph Niblett (22, Vic) and Brian Beilken (21, WA). Thank you, and may you rest in peace. See more

02.01.2022 Labor just voted to gag me as I was speaking on veteran suicide. Absolutely disgusting behaviour. I will never be bullied into shutting my mouth on such an important issue.
