General Vasey Missing In Plane Crash
CANBERRA, Tues. - Major-General G- A. Vasey, C.B., D.S.O., and Major-General "R.M. Downes, C.M.G., V.D., medical historian,, are believed to have lost their lives when a service aircraft crashed into the sea a few miles north of Cairns, about 4 p.m. yesterday. This announcement was released to-night by the Prime Minister, Mr. Curtin.

The search for the plane was continued to-day. Also in the R.A.A.F. Hudson plane were nine others, who are also reported missing, believed killed.
. They are: -
Colonel R; H. Russell, A.A.M.C.; Lieut. W. Riggall. aide to General Vasey, and NX40U1 Cpl. E. L. James. Flt.-Lieut. J. W. Newell, Flying Officers D. Eassett, G. Thompson arid S. B. Freize and L.A.C. J. D. Moore.

Mr. Curtin said another army officer was in the plane and it had rot been possible to locate his next of kin. - When that was done a further announcement would be made.
' Mr. Curtin said this loss was a shocking blow to Australia and the Australian army. General Vasey's record in' this war, particularly in the New Guinea campaigns, made him outstanding as perhaps Australia's most brilliant divisional leader in this war.

Mr. Curtin said General Downes was one of Australia's most distinguished medical men. and had given valuable service to the Australian army since his first appointment to the Australian Army Medical Corps in 1908. He was at present compiling a history of the medical services of this war.
Mr. Curtin said that advice had been received about 4 p.m.' yesterday that an R.A.A.F. Hudson plane crashed' into the sea a little over two miles north of the air strip at Cairns. Weather conditions were extremely bad at the time. R.A.A.F. crash boats set out immediately in search of the personnel from the plane and found traces of the aircraft, but no signs of survivors.
ON WAY NORTH.
General Vasey, after a period spent in highly important staff work at land headquarters, was on his way north to take over an operational appointment, said Mr. Curtin. Through the last war and this he proved himself a magnificent soldier and inspiring leader. All troops who ever came under his command had been inspired by his leadership and personal courage, and by the example of his great ability as a commander.

General Downes was one of Australia's most distinguished medical men and had given valuable service to the Australian army since his first appointment, to the Australian Army Medical Corps in 1908, said the Prime Minister. His active army career ended only recently, but his association with the army continued through his appointment as war historian for medical services.

On behalf of the Australian Government I offer to the next of kin of all the brave men who have been lost the deepest sympathy. It will be, I hope, some consolation to them that their loved ones were lost in the service of their country when setting out to confront the enemy, i know the whole nation will join them in their proud sorrow," said Mr. Curtin.

The search for nine other Army and RAAF personnel, victims of Monday's tragedy, is being hampered by choppy seas and dirty water. The Army officer whose name was withheld in the first announcement of the Hudson crash pending notification of nextof-kin, has been identified as Lieutenant-Colonel G. A. Bertram. He was 31.
Funeral of Major-Generals Vasey and Downes will be in Cairns today, and will be attended by General Sir Thomas Blamey and Lieutenant-General Sir Leslie Morshead.

OBITUARY
___v____
Mr. G. B. Vasey
We regret to announce that the death occurred last night of Mr. George Brinsden Vasey, aged 73 years, who for more than 27 years had been editor of "'The Argus' Law Reports."

He died at his home in Brougham place, Kew. Mr. Vasey took a leading part in activities associated with the legal and educational life of Melbourne. He was interested also in Freemasonry, being at the time of his death Master of the Wesley College Lodge. He was the son of the late Mr. Thomas Vasey, who for many years was secretary of the Metropolitan Gas Company, and was educated at Wesley College and the University of Melbourne. While he was studying for the law he acted as a master at Prince Alfred College, one of his colleagues being Mr. W. H. Irvine (now Sir William Irvine, Lieutenant-Governor of Victoria).

After taking his B.A. degree, Mr. Vasey graduated LLB. in 1887, and he was admitted to the Bar of the Victorian Supreme Court. He joined " 'The Argus' Law Reports" staff in 1895, and succeeded Mr. A. H. Davis as editor in 1907.

He was a foundation member of the Historical Society of Victoria, and contributed articles on early Melbourne both to "The Argus" and the society's journal. He also wrote on legal matters for "The Argus" and "The Australasian." He was the author of several legal text-books, including works on stamps law and probate and administration. He was a member of the council of Queen's College, University of Melbourne, the council of Wesley College, and the Wesley College Old Boys' Association. He became registrar of friendly societies for Victoria 30 years ago on the death of Mr. J. B. Gregory.

Mr. Vasey's widow is a daughter of the late Mr. John Mccutcheon, Melbourne manager of the Commercial Bank, There are three sons-Mr. Arnold Vasey, who holds an important position with a Newcastle woolbroking firm; Major G. A. Vasey, brigade-major, 8th Infantry Brigade, Sydney, who will leave shortly for India on exchange; and Mr. G. H. Vasey, lecturer in agricultural engineering at the University of Melbourne. A fourth son, Mr. J. B. Vasey, was mortally wounded at Gallipoli. Major Vasey and Mr. Arnold Vasey also served in the war, the latter in the Royal Navy. There is one daughter, Miss Marjorie Vasey.

Corporal Vasey's Death.
The parents of Corporal Jack Vasey, of the 2nd Company Field Engineers, who was wounded on August 7, and died of his wounds at Malta Hospital a week later, have received a letter from one of his mates, giving the following account of how their son was engaged when wounded.

The writer says - "Jack was given charge of a party to open up lines of communication, and carried out his portion of the programme splendidly and gallantly. There is not a cooler head in our company than Jack, so the work was in good hands every-thing went well until a Turk got on his
tracks. The first shot tore the sole off the boot, the next took a small piece out of his neck, the next grazed him across the shoulders and the final broke his left shin bone. While this was going on he was doing good work in a trench half full of Turks, so he had a lively time for a while. He managed to get back to our trenches all right after getting hung up numerous times in barbed wire. Ted Dilworth and I were with him before he went on board the hospital ship, and he was in splendid spirits, and there is no need whatever for you to worry. . . . I would follow him anywhere on account of his coolness; nothing excites him under fire. I feel sure he would make a splendid officer. Our little trio is broken up for the present, but I hope not for long". Before this letter came news had
been received that septicaemia had set in, and that in the hope of saving his life the left leg had been amputated, but that the brave young corporal had succumbed.

Before enlisting in August of last year Jack Vasey and Jack Darbyshire, the writer of the letter, were on the staff of a survey party in the Victorian railways construction branch.

VOYAGER INQUIRY - 45th DAY
Stevens 'drunk at party'
SYDNEY, Wednesday. - A former Naval officer today supported Lieutenant Commander P. T. Cabban's allegation that Captain Duncan Stevens had been drunk at a ship's birthday dinner in his honour.

The former officer, Thomas Russell Vasey, told the Commission he was a former school friend of Cabban. The Commission is enquiring into allegations by Cabban, former first officer on Voyager, about Captain Stevens' drinking habits. Captain Stevens and 81 other men died when Voyager and the aircraft carrier Melbourne collided during night exercises off Jervis Bay on February 10, 1964.
Vasey, an airline clerk, now living in Pymble, said he had spent 16 days on Voyager doing a training course, in 1963. He told Mr Porter, junior counsel assisting Mr J. T. Hiatt, QC (for Cabban), that he had no recollection of Dr Tiller, the Voyager's former medical officer, telling Cabban that the captain had been sick. Mr Porter: "Did Tiller ever tell you that the captain would be all right if he left the grog alone?"
Vasey: "I cannot recall that".
To Mr Sinclair, junior counsel assisting Mr W. P. Ash, QC (for the Stevens Family), Vasey said he had not left the ward room of Voyager from the moment Captain Stevens entered the room for the party until he left.
Mr Sinclair: "You certainly noticed nothing unusual about the way the captain went to his seat at
the table?"
'Moved in an unsteady manner'
Vasey: "I said in my statement that I. concluded after the captain entered the ward room that he was drunk. My recollection is that he moved to the other side of the ward room in an unsteady manner, consistent with the way I saw him arrive".
Vasey said the captain had left the ward room immediately after Cabban had presented him with a cigarette lighter. He told Mr Sinclair that the captain had Jeft with Cabban.
Mr Sinclair: "So far as you could see he walked out quite all right?"
Vasey: "No. He was assisted by Cabban. Cabban went out beside him. I don't recall whether he was holding the captain's elbow, but I was left with the impression that he assisted the captain out".
Vasey told the Commission chairman. Sir Stanley Burhury, that he had a clear recollection of Captain Stevens being on his hands and knees when he entered the ward room.
"I have quite a clear picture of this because we were waiting for the captain to enter and I looked around at shoulder height to see him and I was rather surprised".
Sir Stanley: "It was because of this conduct that you thought he was under the influence of alcohol?"
Vasey: "That conduct and from what I subsequently observed. He was unsteady on his feet. He did not have a great deal to say and what he did say he did not say clearly.
"He seemed to have lost his balance to some extent from time to time and behaved in the fashion that one generally concludes when one is under the influence of alcohol".
The hearing will resume on Friday.

Late of North Turramurra formerly from Newcastle and West Pymble.

19.06.1924 to 01.04.2016

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, and all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by; and the wheel's kick and the wind's song and white sails shaking, and a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.

And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, and quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

A memorial service will be held for Russ at 11am on Wednesday April 5, 2017, at St Swithun's Telegraph Road Pymble.

Notes
General:
Brylie had been on dialysis for some time and was the recipient of a kidney transplant early in 2014. The kidney transplant was one of 5 carried out on the same day, with the donated kidneys being transported to the various patients around Melbourne. Brylie's mother donated a kidney to another recipient so that Brylie could receive a kidney from another person. Sadly, Brylie was very weak from her illness and despite the kidney functioning well, Brylie's weight had dropped to under 40 kgs and complications set in.
