President's Report
The Association has to finalise the numbers
attending by Monday 10 September. As the United Services Club has a
policy of no cancellations, the Association will be liable for the costs of
the number confirmed. As a result of this, members that have indicated
their attendance and then find that they cannot attend after 10th September
will be billed for the function as the Association does not have the
capacity to underwrite this loss. Please note, this will only apply if
the attendance is below the confirmed number. It is requested that
members pay when they accept the invitation.
The main changes include:-
The changes are effective Friday 15 June 2007 and as such will apply to the
Association before the Annual General Meeting.

Constitution", to take up the amendments. I am still
***************************** CO's Report
My first four months seem to have flown since I arrived. The Regiment was in an excellent condition thanks to my predecessor, LTCOL Nan Bahr. While there was a significant changeover of senior staff in the Regiment, I have been impressed by their dedication and effort to getting on with the job. The year commenced with the Graduation of 17 Staff Cadets at RMC in late February. The Honorary Colonel, MAJGEN John Pearn was able to attend and watch the magnificent parade and the presentation of commissions. We were fortunate in that 2LT Michelle Scott (NQC) was awarded the Geddes Military Skills Prize for the Most Outstanding performance in Military Skills. The graduation was followed by a Graduation Cocktail Party at the Regiment's Officers' Mess where the newly promoted 2LT were able to meet their new Commanding Officers, and allowed QUR to farewell the graduates in style. Our next challenge was the Specialist Officer Course, held at Amberley RAAF Base, due to the lack of facilities at Enoggerra and St Lucia. 28 specialists arrived bright and bushy tailed, and over the next two and a half weeks, all 28 students developed into officers able to understand and participate in service life within the Army Reserve. My thanks go to the Senior Instructor, MAJ Kerry Tscherepko, and Course Managers CAPT Andy McCarthy and WO2 Kerry McGreevy for their outstanding efforts in the conduct of the course. The Regiment also commemorated ANZAC Day with a parade through Toowong to the Toowong Memorial Park where the ANZAC Day service was held. It was a stirring ceremony, with CAPT Scott Fisher delivering a wonderful speech on the relevance of ANZAC Day to today's society. Personally it was wonderful to see the younger generation attending the service and I am sure that ANZAC Day will continue to mean much to our youth of today, through the military traditions fostered through the Regiment. My thanks goes to the RSM, WO1 John Davidson, for the excellent drill and smooth conduct of the parade and service. At the conclusion of the service, a gunfire breakfast was served at Witton Barracks and included a hearty breakfast prepared by the Caterer, WO2 Graham Smith and his staff. Two-Up, Crown and Anchor and numerous meat raffles kept the visitors interested for the morning. MAJ Rob Sawford, OC Training Support Company and his staff did a wonderful job in organising the day. The Regiment's Birthday was celebrated on 8 May by a Tuesday evening parade with the youngest member, SCDT Jon Cawcutt cutting the cake with myself, and MAJGEN Pearn was able to attend for the celebrations. The Officers also celebrated with the Annual Regimental Dinner, held at Cromwell College and attended by the Governor of Qld, Her Excellency Ms Quentin Bryce and Dr John Herron. Dr Herron, a previous RMO of QUR, gave a wonderful after dinner speech of his life within the services and in particular his time spent with the Regiment. It was wonderful to see so many previous graduates, Commanding Officers and Honorary Colonels at the dinner. We look forward to the Regiment's 60th birthday celebrations next year. As I write, we have just commenced the final Mod IIIA1 course at Amberley. 94 staff cadets arrived on Friday evening to complete the course at Amberley for the period 30 June till 15 July. Mod IIIA2 will follow consecutively from 16 July till 1 August. MAJ Rob Brennan, OC Trg Coy is the SI for the two courses and has been well supported by all companies of QUR as well as from AUR and MUR. I'm sure that the course will be as successful as the SSO course. Project Hamel, which is the revised ARes GSO First Appointment Course will commence in January 2008. The aim of the revised course is to "deliver LT who can deploy on peace and stability operations". It will consist of 5 modules of 104 days continuous training, as well as non-continuous training on weekends and Tuesday evenings. The Staff Cadets will commence at Module 1 and consecutively complete the courses until the graduation course - Module 5 at RMC. Module 5 will be offered in February and July annually, which enable the cadets to graduate at two opportunities in the year, which is a real bonus for both the cadets in the FAC construct. Finally, for anyone who has visited the Regiment premises recently, you will see that the Regiment is decanted into demountable buildings for the period of refurbishment by the removal of asbestos within the walls of the old buildings, both at St Lucia and Indooroopilly. Although the next few months will be disrupted, the Regiment will continue with its high quality instruction and provision of services until we return to a fresher building. My thanks go to all staff and cadets for their patience during this period.

Colonel The Honourable John Greenwood
QC presented a photograph to QUR at the Back to the regiment function on
Friday 9 March 2007
At the recent Back to the Regiment function John
Greenwood presented a large framed photograph to the Commanding Officer QUR
Jennifer Cotton. The picture showed the Royal Guard on parade at
Government House in Brisbane on 3rd March 1954. The guard for the
Royal visit of the Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh was made from members of
the 9th Battalion, The Moreton Regiment and Queensland University Regiment.
This was the only time when the CMF mounted a
guard in Australia for the Royal visit. The snapshot was taken just as
her Majesty approached the right marker of the guard. It is important
to note that John Greenwood was that right marker.
During the presentation John Greenwood related
some of his memories from that occasion. With John’s permission here
is a summary of some of his memories.
John said that all the members of the guard had
a common goal… they aimed not at excellence but for perfection. To
ensure that the highly starched trousers were not creased they stood on
tables to get into their trousers. When being transported by bus to
Government House they did not sit down but chose to stand in case they would
crease their uniforms.
John said that he knew that Her Majesty would
not stop and talk to the right marker during the inspection. Her Majesty
would normally stop about 4 or 5 members along the front rank. However, John
knew that when Her Majesty stopped the Duke of Edinburgh would stop and talk
to the right marker. John also knew that he should not drop his eyes
to look at Her Majesty when she passed him, and he was aware that the Duke
of Edinburgh would watch him closely in case he did that. The Duke would
then not talk to the right marker. So John had a decision….. drop his
eyes and look at Her Majesty ( John is a rather tall man ) or look to the
front and hope the Duke would stop and chat.
John relates that he chose to look at Her
Majesty as she passed.
On the march off from the parade ground the
guard passed some very old Boer War veterans standing by the side of the
road. As guard marched by the veterans rose to their feet, stood to
attention, but they were crying. John relates that the band was playing
“Soldiers of the Queen” John was moved by this display of patriotism.
The picture will be hung at the Regiment as
another piece of QUR history.

Thanks for the latest QURA Newsletter. It is good to catch up with you all via this means.
For an update, I have stood down as the Principal Chaplain – Army from 21 January 2007 and am now on Long Service Leave until the middle of the year when the plan is to transfer from the ARA to the Active Reserve and continue as the Reserve Anglican member of the Principal Chaplains’ Committee, that should be 5 to 6 years (God willing).
At this time Sandy and I have no idea what civilian church employment is ahead of us. I will begin to negotiate with Bishops after Easter. Until then we have set aside the early months of 2007 as a time of deliberate re-creation and rest.
I will keep you and the Association advised of any change of address etc when the time comes. For your records, in the Australia Day Honours I was made a member of the Order of Australia (AM) not an OAM as stated in the Newsletter.
Blessings,

Hi Peter
My husband, Bill Gwynne, has been in hospital for about three months. He went in for a disc operation, which was elective surgery, but then more serious complications arose and he also picked up a staph infection.
I have delayed replying because nobody knew how long he would be in hospital.
Bill has now been transferred to a rehab. hospital, so hopefully it won't be too long before he is fully mobile again and able to come to a QUR function!
Sorry for the delay

Hi Peter,
However the then a/adjt must have still been concussed. We were at Tin Can Bay
I think. I can vividly remember the lacerations on the adjt and the a/adjt's face but time seem to have erased his/ her features??.
I know we replaced the glass with a more fool proof plastic sheet
- Trevor Lutterell can probably remember the details.
You might also remind Trevor of the same camp when he, and others, while fiddling illegally with the depot electricity in the ceiling trying to wire the colours cabinet set off just
about every alarm between the depot and Canberra!!

Dear Peter
Thank you for your email.
I would be very happy to write something, but it
would need to be for a later newsletter. After 4 months continuous travel, I am
just finalizing some matters here in Bangkok before returning to DC this week. So let me get back to you on this. Once back in DC let me also follow up on the membership.
The website provides a very nice archive of newsletters here which I have now
scanned through, some of which conveyed the sad news of the passing of Garry
Chandler, Pete Rayner and Shane Slipias. The various pics are indeed a trip
down memory lane, in the 21 years since I had contact with QUR.
Full credit to
QURA, that it would seem to have the best website for information. None of the
other units, with which I served after QUR, would seemed to be so well
organized.

FRIDAY
9 MARCH 2007
Association members and their partners and guests attended the
Standfast Club, the soldiers’ club at the
Regiment’s St Lucia depot, for an evening of good cheer with old comrades and new acquaintances from amongst the membership and those currently serving in QUR.
*****************************
Like most people who have ever completed a recruit course, initially I hated the army. After all, what’s to like?
Entering a camp of strangers a normal human being only to emerge, sixteen days, with self esteem thinner than paper. It’s a well developed psychological technique – tearing people down in order to build them anew to suit the model. But it does form strong bonds with your fellow sufferers, and there were some great girls on that course also from QUR - Joanne Gliddon, Jeanette McGavin, Jacinta Long, Narelle Clarke, and Madeleine Knights.
3 PLATOON A COY. 8/80
RECRUIT COURSE - NOVEMBER/DECEMBER, 1980
I think that recruit course was at Wacol in November/ December 1980. After that it was a huge relief to do a camp with QUR. There was still abuse from those with authority, and plenty of rank, saluting and marching, but there were also ambushes, a five day bush trek, orienteering, exercises and fun to be had. Most of us were at university and the culture felt completely different to that I’d experienced at Wacol.
At the time QUR was actively recruiting more girls, and for the first time female soldiers were required to do A Company Infantry Training. We’d been warned to build our fitness, and in January 1981 we did a sixteen day exercise at Tin Can Bay, where the hard work was matched by the level of play. We spent five days marching in the bush, woken in the middle of the night to patrol and march some kilometres in darkness and silence before establishing camp again, dug latrines, lived on ration packs and went without a shower. We were shot at, ambushed, spent hours patrolling at snail’s pace and in silence (sort of) through the heat of the Australian bush in summer. We got hopelessly lost in our orienteering exercise in the few moments that I had the compass. The sleep deprivation and sense of being stalked provided a faint glimmer of what it might be like to be at war for real with those now disregarded methods.
It was on one of those camps that we learnt to shoot and look after our SLR, but also to operate a sub machine gun. My first shot with the rifle was my best. I never learnt not to dodge the kickback and from then on every shot went awry.
Days at Tin Can Bay would comprise a morning working hard and often an afternoon at the beach, after bumping over kilometres of bush tracks to the sea. We explored the beaches and mangroves, swam, ate and drank (no doubt). Rank was forgotten. I remember burying one of our captains in the sand. He also gave me an impromptu driving lesson in one of the army jeeps one day when we were out and about on the sand tracks.
It was an excuse to become a little familiar for this otherwise mild-mannered (and married) man. The rebuff was fully expected, but he seemed to feel almost obliged to try it on. Like many others who were accustomed to camps with few women, suddenly there were barracks-full of young female soldiers, and most nights would be punctuated by some sort of abrupt entry or exit of a male officer in or out of the windows of the female barracks.
On the beach is
Private Narelle Clarke and an unknown(??) officer.
I still have the “Best Female Soldier A Coy” plaque awarded to me on the last evening of that camp of January 1981. No matter where I’ve lived somehow it usually ends up in my top drawer. And many a time I’ve entertained my colleagues and friends from the arts with highly coloured accounts of my days as a “trained killer”. It’s the active soldier stuff that is most memorable. I was uplifted from the ground on a rope and reeled in to a helicopter hovering overhead. Often we moved in formation as a platoon, laden with packs, onto a helicopter which would be on the ground only for a matter of seconds, rotor thundering above. Then there were trips in Chinooks, Hercules aircraft, and lots of chopper rides.
After A Company, being more of a Private Benjamin than officer material, I became B Company clerk. I liked the job, and worked Tuesday nights, some weekends and most camps, until 1984 when I had three other part time jobs and something had to go. Apart from the clerical work, I cut diggers hair (in clueless fashion), spent time in the bush with the company, and watched the young faces front up for their advanced infantry training over three or four years.
After work Tuesday nights there would be drinks in the mess and sometimes we’d go in search of coffee. This was harder than you’d think given that in Brisbane in the early 1980s the only places open after 9 pm were the Snuggle Inn in Milton and the Cubana in the CBD.
I remember great parties (courtesy of Michael van Baarle) at Government House when he was Aide de Camp to the Governor, and others in student flats and houses. There were countless nights at the Orient Hotel with “Rusty and the Ayers Rockettes”. I’d had such good friends from the QUR orbit but lost touch with everyone after I moved to Sydney in 1986, although I think Michael van Baarle remained on my referee list for years.
It was curious to go “Back to the Regiment” in March, held in what was the OR’s mess. The current batch of soldiers was charming, deferential and respectful to us old boys (and girls). It felt completely bizarre because truly it doesn’t seem that long ago that I was there myself.

ANZAC Commemorative Address at the Toowong Memorial - 25 Apr 2007
Today is a special day when we remember all those, whether service personnel
or civilians, who have served our nation, who suffered or continue to suffer
through war, conflict or crisis, especially to reflect upon the selfless
sacrifice of those who died and were wounded to preserve our freedom and
independence.
This is also a day of thanks and quiet reflection on what a wonderful, lucky
nation we live in. It is a time to reflect on Australia's commitment to
continue to contribute to peace in other parts of the world. We cannot
isolate ourselves and ignore these responsibilities. In a perfect world
there would be no wars, no aggression and no requirement to maintain defence
forces. Unfortunately this is not a perfect world and there are more areas
of conflict than ever before. Where necessary, to preserve the peace in our
region or elsewhere in the world, we must be prepared to deploy our forces,
such as these young men and women in front of you today, to fight for or
protect the rights of our neighbours and our own nation.
Some say this day glorifies war, but every veteran will be the first to say
that their greatest wish and most fervent prayer is that their children and
this nation may never have to witness the horrors of war again.
As the ranks of our veterans continue to diminish, let us be determined to
maintain this special day so that we can take a break from the roller
coaster of life to reflect on how fortunate we are, to reflect on our
freedom. To recognise the futility of war but to acknowledge that we must be
prepared to defend this freedom.
The ANZACs, and the more than one hundred thousand servicemen and women who
lost their lives since, would be the last people to ever glorify war or
their part in it. Their greatest gift to us, through their suffering and
that of their families, is our freedom and the opportunities we are now
fortunate to enjoy here in Australia.
So let us, all of us here at the Toowong Memorial Today, strive to be worthy
of those we honour on this ANZAC Day. We can show our appreciation not just
through remembering them, but by committing ourselves to follow their
example. Let us face challenges together, let us strive to maintain future
freedom and be willing to shape a better world.
Not many of us are called upon to place our lives in danger for others. We
admire those who do. For all of us here today, we can reflect the spirit of
ANZAC through our behaviour towards one another – be this a commitment to a
mate in need, a desire to care for others less fortunate than ourselves or
in need of help, or simply by being more tolerant, more considerate, more
generous and understanding.
I would like to finish by saying:
On behalf of all the men and women in the Queensland University Regiment,
let us remember all the young Australians who sacrificed the pleasure of
growing old with their families, children and friends, who created the
traditions we value so highly and which underpin our ethos of service to our
country.
