Roger Dyer

Farewell to a very dear friend.
Formerly a very able police officer (Traffic Sgt.) after leaving the service Mal enjoyed a completely different life as a market gardener/horticulturist.
He had a wonderful sense of humour, and possessed a great fondness for the humour and drama he found in Australian poetry ( at the drop of a hat he would happily recite large ‘çhunks’ of Banjo Patterson, etc without once referring to a book).
Multi-talented, he played the ukulele and could turn his hand to most other things.
Always kind and generous with his tíme he was indeed a lovely man and like many others I know, I cherished his friendship.

 


 

Condolences to Jude, siblings Merelyn, Janette, Susan together with family and friends.

Gwen was 1 of 3 NSW Police Women who obtained their Diploma in Criminology from Sydney University.

Gwen was accepted into the Detectives Training Course – later to become the 1st NSW Police Woman.

Gwen is reputed to have been a competitive Fencer ( Sword ) in her youth.

Class 082 who where Sworn In on the 4 April 1960 walked into Redfern Police Academy on Monday 29 February 1960 to start their Training. Photo taken at Redfern Police Academy. Class passed out 4th. April, 1960. The infamous Sgt. Ben Hall can be seen in the front row. This is at Redfern, of course. No Goulburn yet. The first ever (N.S.W.P) female detective (Gwen Martin) was in this class.

Police Legacy – 16 October 2019
Yesterday we played host to a meeting of the Retired Police Association, and had the pleasure of being introduced to Inspector Gwen Martin (retd), a trailblazing policewoman who joined the NSW Police Force in 1960 – one of three women in a class of ninety.

She’s been retired for nearly thirty years now, but has many fond and colourful memories of her time in the Force (some of which we couldn’t possibly repeat in a public forum ????????)

Gwen worked in many different capacities – everything from traffic control to the drug squad – before undertaking the Detectives’ Training Course in 1971, finishing 4th in the class.

From there she moved to Parramatta, working her way up through the ranks before becoming the first female member of the Police Association to be elected to the Executive, and eventually attaining the rank of Inspector at the Police Internal Affairs Branch, remaining there until her retirement in 1990.

Gwen, we salute you, and the example you have given for so many young women joining the NSW Police Force!

Deepest condolences to Nicks wife Jessica and their daughters Lizzy and Daisy.

 


 

* Story behind any Nickname:  Beef Man = ?

 


 

In 2022 Nick contracted Bacterial Meningitis which brought on a couple of strokes and then a heart attack.

Nick, despite being on the cusp of death, managed to rally and came good.

With the aid of rehabilitation for months, he was able to return to work in an administrative role.

Unfortunately his brain was not functioning correctly and he had to take ‘sick leave’ again.

Although he was still on the ‘roster’, he was not able to physically return to VKG for months – leading up to his untimely, and young, death.

Nick, from all accounts, was a great guy, highly intelligent, always the gesture and far too young.

He died in his sleep and looked as though he was simply taking a nap.

Forever – Rest In Peace.

TOP BRAVERY AWARDS

 

The Governor-General, Sir Zelman Cowen, announced yesterday that the Queen had approved 16 bravery awards for Australians.

Mr Nelson is the only recipient of the Star of Courage.

Four people have won the Bravery Medal and 11 will receive the Commendation for Brave Conduct.

Winners of the Bravery Medal are Sergeant Third-Class Brian Carson, NSW Police, Chief Inspector Stanley Dawson, South Australian Police, Able Seaman Anthony McLeod, HMAS Albatross, Nowra, and Mr Daryl Streets, Penguin, Tasmania.

Sergeant Carson attended an accident at Faulconbridge, NSW, in November last year in which a car had come to rest on a railway line.

Ambulance officers had placed an injured person on a stretcher on an adjoining line. As a train approached Sergeant Carson rushed in front of it and lifted the injured person from the stretcher to safety.
