Off topic, but Pte Peter Gillson was the father of a mate of mine who I went through RMC Duntroon with. There was a doco being made while we were at RMC about the operation to bring home his dad and L/CPL Parker... not sure if it is out yet... but if it is it should be a great watch. Gilly had some very interesting things to tell us about the hunt for his dad.
