The absolute epitome of a Company Clerk, Roger knew everything about everybody and made sure we got all we were entitled to . A good soldier, a good man. He served his country and his comrades well. He will be missed.

Sad news to hear of Roger´s passing. He was a close work colleague, a mentor and a wonderful soldier and Officer.
I had the privilege of serving with Roger at NSTU, Waiouru, Papakura, DTMC and Wellington.
An icon of the Corps who will be missed by many.
Condolences to the family.
