Was it Cobargo, I don’t know, hot, no water, two NSW police officers assisted me to move my car off the road, out of danger. They asked if I needed anything and I replied that I was out of water, they said they would send some. I was out of petrol and a Good Samaritan came by and donated some, I said I would pay him back, he left me his number, but they stole it from my wallet. Late in the evening a Sargeant from the local station arrived, he looked tired and we had a short chat, he gave me a bottle of water and said it was in short supply. We didn’t say anything to each other, but we both knew, he was going to his death, shot to pieces when he returned to his outpost station, he left and I wished him a good night. I returned to my car and sat staring into the darkness, my heart was heavy, knowing that a brave officer had gone to his death, my condolences, R.I.P, my brief and solemn mate, gone to the grave.
