The Military Authorities have advised me that the person concerned served a total of 136 days in the Reserve Defence Force in 1969 and on 29 December 1969 he went absent. In January 1970 a Court of Inquiry was convened where he was declared an “Illegal Absentee” and was struck off the strength with effect from 29 December 1969. The Military Authorities have further advised, that having reviewed the individual’s file, they are satisfied that the individual concerned was discharged in full accordance with Defence Forces regulations.
