He served in Vietnam with 21 Engineer Support Troop from march 1969 to March 1970. The Australian Red Cross Society did a wonderful job in assisting our veterans. In this case they had contacted the veterans wife and parents to let them know how he was after he had been hurt, and relayed messages from them. This meant a lot to the veteran and his family because there was little advice given by the Department of Defence, except for an initial telegram.An Australian Red Cross telegram to John from his wife and parents.

Resulting from a booby trap explosion, 7 members of C Company 8 platoon were wounded when ascending the Nui Thi Vai mountain on the 8th Oct 1966.

Members of C Company 9 platoon after days of bush bashing - a soldier's term used to describe days of navigating dense terrain and vegetation while being always at the ready for enemy contact. Under a coloured photograph of APC reads: 5 RAR - Operation Hayman 8th to 12 November. Armoured Personnel carriers supporting 5 RAR during staging/forming mode prior to being air-lifted on to the summit of Nui Nua on Long Son Island. The Battalion's objective was to capture or eliminate the Chau Duc District VC Company that had been restricting movements of the local regional force. Thirteen Viet Cong survived and surrendered days later to mainland police. Under a coloured photograph of soldiers walking on a log over water reads: 5 RAR - Hat Bands. The Viet Cong occasionally wore the same or similar headgear as the Australian forces in an attempt to create confusion when contact was made. In the short term this was remedied by threading a coloured ribbon around the Australian bush hat. The ribbon served as an identification marker so as to quickly identify an Australian soldier from the enemy.

On the morning of 7 February 1966, Private John Densley, aged 20, was hit by a Viet Cong sniper’s bullets — one entered his neck and the other his abdomen, puncturing his liver. John’s condition was critical. He was a good candidate for the little-known Australians Dangerously Ill Scheme (AUSDIL), which allows for a soldier to be supported by a family member when doctors believe it will aid the soldier’s recovery. The Army had only flown next-of-kin out of Australia once before, but in Vietnam, Brigadier OD Jackson approved the idea and in Australia the Minister for the Army, Malcolm Fraser, took charge. John’s mother, Christina, had never been out of Victoria, let alone on a plane. But in less than 48 hours, she was issued with a passport and visas, had numerous vaccinations, and was flown Qantas first class to her son’s bedside in Saigon at the Australian Government’s expense. John and Christina Densley were both cared for in Vietnam by Red Cross member Hilda Zinner, who was awarded an MBE in recognition of her contribution to the welfare of Australian and New Zealand servicemen and their families.
