Just seen that on the news Pottsy, good on him but what happened to the Lad that was rescued we thought it would have been good to have some input from him.
He has grown into a fine young bloke, he, his partner and child sauntered into Port Lincoln police station probably six years ago and met with John out of the blue only three months before John retired from the Police Force.
I knew the bloke who made and maintained the trash racks that they were on, so I got one from him and laminated a board with the press clippings put it under glass and turned the rack into a coffeee table which he still has in his lounge. John knew this was going to be on the news tonight but declined the offer of an interview, it brings back many emotions. We are all very proud of him.
