Private David John Elkington Fisher
Private David Fisher of the Special Air Service Regiment (SASR) fell from a rope beneath a Royal Australian Air Force helicopter during a “hot extraction” of his patrol on 27 September 1969. It is now known that Private Fisher died as a result of the fall and was hastily buried by enemy soldiers who discovered his body.
Private David Fisher is the fourth and last Australian Soldier to be located and his return will complete the recovery of all Australian Army personnel who were lost on operations and not recovered during the Vietnam War. Lance Corporal Parker and Private Gillson were repatriated to Australian in June 2007 and Lance Corporal Gillespie in December 2007.
