    Richard Head...? 1983 we had a young SPR march into 7Fd Sqn. He was from northern Tasmania and, before he'd joined the Army, he'd never had anyone in Tassie ever remark about his name...his family name was Brayne........and yes....his parents had called him Richard.

    Forever...SPR Dick Brayne.

    'Hey you!! SPR Dick Brayne!! Get over here!!
