Subject someone you should meet
My name is Richie Bell, I am in No:3 RFLT 2AFDS.
I am writing to say I was just surfing the net and came across the sight & after reading some areas decided to
tell you about an Airman who has had a hard life prior to becoming an ADG, and since becoming one has turned it all around.
But the reason I am writing is to tell you about his poem's.
They are verry good and he has alot of them that he wrights when we are in the field.
He is away at the moment and im not sure when he's coming back, But he is worth getting in contact with.
We are both part of 3FLT and the number for our donga is 54614879, But like I said it could be a while before he returnes.
His name is David Slowiak or Chucky and he is hauding these poem's not knowing what to do with them.
Anyway top sight

$1.1M FOR VETERAN HEALTH RESEARCH
The New South Wales Cancer Council and Sydney University will receive
Federal Government grants totalling more than $1.1 million for research into
health issues affecting veterans, the Minister for Veterans' Affairs, Danna
Vale, announced today.
Minister Vale said she had approved the funding as part of the Federal
Government's Veterans' Affairs Health and Medical Research Grants Program.
"This Commonwealth funding helps important research into health problems
which afflict veterans and war widows, by supporting new and continuing
projects," she said.
"Priority is given to research into prostate disease, alcohol and substance
abuse, dementia, post traumatic stress disorder, motor neuron disease,
multiple sclerosis, stroke, wound healing and potential causal links between
exposure to chemical and cancer or genetic disorders."
Making the announcement on the eve of World Cancer Day, Minister Vale said
the NSW Cancer Council will receive $578,750 over three years for research
into the impact of treatment for prostate cancer.
"Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and with survival rates
continuing to improve, the issue of quality of life has become increasingly
important," she said.
"This project will provide information not currently available in Australia
about the medium and long-term impact of treatment on quality of life, costs
and side effects, to help in decision-making about treatment options.
"The University of Sydney's Royal North Shore Hospital campus will receive
$309,000 over three years for another prostate disease project, exploring
the detection and diagnosis of prostate disease using magnetic resonance
imaging and spectroscopy.
"These non-invasive procedures can identify chemical changes associated with
different aspects of prostate disease, providing a significant improvement
in the management of patients with early and late stage prostate disease."
The Minister said the University of Sydney's Royal Prince Alfred Hospital
campus would receive a grant of $215,000 over three years to undertake
research into the molecular pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease.
"These researchers will use the new technology of gene array, which scans
thousands of genes simultaneously to find those most altered.
"The researchers have already found changes in a number of genes and plan to
study the most promising of these in more detail, with the aim of developing
new approaches to disease prevention or therapy.
"These are significant projects with the potential to assist the lives of
many veterans, as well as benefiting the wider Australian community,"
Minister Vale said.

Hi Mate
Just looking at the ADG web page - 2004 Anzac Day reunion attendees. Don Scott is from the Sunshine Coast, not NSW. I feel a bit lonely and insecure sitting there all on my own representing Qld.
I only found Don because of your web page. Last saw him 7 years ago in Brisbane and lost contact. Did not know that he had only moved up the road from where I am now living. Thanks to your hard work I have now caught up with a really good buddy again. Thanks mate.

Thanks Mate,
