Last night, I lost another great mate, to the scourge of Cancer.
NSW Police (ret) Detective Superintendent and Military Police Special Investigation Branch Major; Terence (Terry) Charles Calov Dalton.
Its been an absolute “life experience” knowing you.
31 years ago, we met and you have never let me down. It’s been an honour calling you a brother, through the craft, the Cops and in our personal lives.
You have left a massive footprint on this crazy world.
Be proud of your achievements, none more significant than your amazing family.
Thank you for your tireless service to the community at large, you’ve allowed many of us to sleep safely at night.
I’m a much better human for knowing you TCC.
Rest in Peace my Brother.
“So Mote it Be.” ????❤️
Early knocks provided life-long lessons
“I learnt that valuable lesson early on, you’ve got to keep your eye on people” … Terence Dalton. Credit: Jacky Ghossein
RETIRING superintendent Terry Dalton has a word of advice for young police as he prepares to leave the force: “Make sure the crooks don’t win.”
It’s a sentiment the police veteran has followed all 31 years of his career – that, and make sure you duck when someone throws a punch your way.
“I learnt that valuable lesson early on, you’ve got to keep your eye on people,” he told the Herald yesterday.
Superintendent Dalton says he’s lucky he hasn’t been on the receiving end of much more violence since he copped a broken jaw during that incident, in his first weeks as a police officer in Tasmania in 1972.
He joined the Royal Hong Kong Police a few years later and in 1981 he moved back to Australia for a career in the force that earned him the nickname “the Admiral“.
It’s apt for the man who will today lead 700 officers in a march through central Sydney to commemorate 150th anniversary of policing in NSW.
On March 1, 1862, existing independent police units of the colony were amalgamated into the single NSW Police Force.
Superintendent Dalton said sodden conditions will not stop the parade.
“I think tomorrow will be a proud day for the entire NSW Police Force, just to be a part of it,” he said.
But it will be particularly poignant for him, as he leaves the force in September after more than three decades working in the water police, the police negotiators, in child protection and what used to be called “Special Branch” – which protected the world’s dignitaries here in Australia.
Superintendent Dalton was the first officer to Prince Charles’s side when a man brandishing a starter pistol fired two blank shots at the heir to the British throne during an Australia Day awards ceremony at Darling Harbour in 1994.
He has also protected the Queen, former US president George Bush, and former South African President Nelson Mandela.
The 150th Anniversary of Policing will be formally launched with the NSW force’s banner being led by a police marine contingent across Sydney Harbour from Watson’s Bay at 9am, down to Circular Quay.
A “Sea of Blue” marching contingent will then take the banner along George Street to Town Hall, arriving there for a civic reception about 10.45am.

My sincere condolences to Anthony’s family.
May the God of peace and comfort strengthen the family during this most difficult time.
When I attended Marist Brothers Parramatta (in Victoria Road) in the ’50s, I seem to remember a Tony Boys (with fair hair) who may have been in the same class (I’m 75).
If Tony is the same person, I’m very sorry to hear he has died.
Loved and loving father of Ben (Blondie), Hayden (Dingo) and Darcy (Doo) and their partners David, Bek and Adam.
Proud and loving Poppy of Noah.
Funeral details will be advised.

The love of family and friends speed you on your journey home.
Barry, whilst still living in England, joined the Royal Air Force before emigrating to Australia with his wife, Linda, aboard the ship TV Fairstar from Southhampton.
At the time of arriving in Australia, on the 14 December 1969, he was employed in the Catering field as a Cook & Waiter.
They moved to a unit at 131 John St, Cabramatta, NSW
Barry Served in the RAF with Units: RAF White Waltham ( 1964 – 1969 ) & RAF Hereford ( 1964 – 1969 ) sub unit 114.
He held the Rank of SAC & Service # F4276992
His Australian Army Regimental # 2147621 – Commissioned on 24 August 1974 as 2nd Lieutenant. Baz left the Army Reserve holding the Rank of Captain.
Baz and Linda met as 15 year olds and have been together every since.
Barry was a member of the Royal Australian Corps of Military Police prior to joining the NSWPF.
During his career with NSWPF, Baz was a member of the TRG ( Tactical Response Group ) and trained many Police in the use of the ( then ) new long batons ( which replaced the small rubber ‘trungens’ that we used to be issued.
He was instrumental on the inception of ‘simunition’ training, the change over from the Smith & Wesson .38 to the Glock Pistol, Mandatory OS ( Officer Survival ) tactics and training and the full time Weapons Unit.
He was also called, many times, to give ‘expert’ evidence in relation to various ‘shooting’ incidents in relation to Police related shooting incidents.
After his Policing career he joined Corrective Services in the Court system for a short time before finally giving up work to enjoy a more ‘relaxing’ life.
Prior to the invention of Facebook, Barry was an on-line member of the Policing Forum, the TBL ( or the Thin Blue Line ) – which is still an active Policing Forum which hangs off my main site – www.AustralianPolice.com.au
Barry, or ‘Barry7’, as he was known on TBL, joined TBL on 26 April 2005 – a few years before FB was ‘a thing’.
He posted over 5,760 posts on that Forum and his knowledge and expertise shone through with the way he helped other former, serving and ‘wannabe’ Police.
Barry, and others like him, put himself forward to bring vast improvements to Policing and Police safety – for the benefit of us all, and the benefit of Police who will come well and truly after we ( the old guard ) have all left this earth.
His comments and insights, on TBL, are still part of the enduring legacy that he leaves behind – for others to read and be guided & learn by.
There are, no doubt, Police who possibly owe their life to Baz – for the training he provided those people over many years.
It can never be said that Baz did not stand before an angry man – for he was always the one to ‘lead’ from the Front and By Example when the battles began and the ‘shit’ hit the fan.
The 1985 Bathurst Bikie Riots are just one example of this Bullmastiff standing up to the Rotweiler.
Eventually, when Facebook came along, communications were becoming more instantaneous and, eventually, Barry moved from the Forum style of on-line communications to the FB style, and thus – hadn’t made a Post on the TBL Forum since 23 October 2016 – but his 5,760 Posts remain.
Lots have met Barry, many more haven’t. He was always up for a chat and always up for a coffee crunch at Campbelltown when it was arranged.
Baz was always boasting about his visits to NZ to visit family ‘over the ditch’ and how extremely proud he was of his kids and grandkids. That deep love and affection is quite obvious in all the photos he has shared with us over the years.
He and Linda recently moved up the coast, from Camden, to be closer to their daughter.
Barely time for any of them to settle down in their new digs, when the old boy went into the Hospital system for a relatively minor heart operation on Tuesday but was met with complications from which he was not to recover and, sadly, passed away with Linda and family by his side on Wednesday – never to have regained consciousness again.
Baz, you contributed to this world. You did not leave empty handed but holding the love and affection of a great tribe of people who loved and put their trust in you.
My friend, our friend – may you Forever Rest In Peace.

Hi everyone. I would like to introduce myself before I continue. I am Barry Lewis’s 3rd daughter, the gorgeous one and the one who was of course the apple of her daddies eye ( I also got his tongue in cheek wit as you can by now probably tell).
On behalf of my family I would like to say thank you. Your condolences and lovely words have carried our family through this very tough time. My dad would have been so proud that you have all stepped up to support us.
We are so totally overwhelmed with the outpouring of grief that has been displayed and want to reach out to each and every one of you and offer comfort.
My dad was my hero, he is the example that I have held every man I have ever met up to and most have failed. He was my dad my friend, my inspiration and my strength and through this page I have been able to see that he was also these things to so many more people.
To all of you I offer my condolences for your loss, I never realised the hole that he would be leaving in your lives.
Thank you for being a part of his life. He valued every one of you and was so proud of his work here on this page.

Memories! My first day in the Army as a commissioned officer. I arrived at 2MP for my very first Dining In Night at the Ingleburn Area Officers Mess. I was pooping myself! The formality of it alll went out the window when Mr Vice stood up to toast the Queen. He raised a very unsteady glass and declared “God save the Queen and all those who sail in Her!” Major Hoban sat down and there was an unnerving silence in the room. I didn’t know what to do. Then the sound of hobnail boots clearly marching towards the entrance and in burst two immaculately presented MP Corporals who quietly and ever so efficiently whisked away Mr Vice. I never saw him again…… Ever. with Barry Lewis.

Barry Lewis August 7 · Well, today is the 54th Wedding Anniversary of Linda and myself.We have been together since we were 15 and she has stuck by me through thick and thin. Always supportive, we have always been a Team.When I look back I realise now that I was a mere callow youth in the formative years of our relationship, but with her help and guidance I gradually matured into Manhood and Fatherhood.She may only be 4 foot 11 inches tall, but she is a force to be reckoned with when roused. I couldn’t imagine life without her. My Rock, my life, my love. I would do it all over again and never change a thing. XXX
For the love of family.
