MURURGASAN
Kuppusamy – or Muru as he is known – has retired after working
for the Air Force at RMAF Butterworth, Malaysia, for the past
39 years.
Muru has split most of that time between managing spare parts
for aircraft and managing the bar at Club 76 after. He began his
career with the Air Force as a general storekeeper with Base Squadron
Butterworth in 1965.
He went on to manage Caribou spares with No. 79 Squadron and Orion
spares with No. 92 Wing Detachment Alpha. He ran the Kennel Club
within Block 38 for many years.
He was renowned for his service, providing everything from a cool
drink to his wife’s chicken curry recipe. Muru was awarded an
Australia Day Medallion in 1995.
