AUSTRALIAN COMMANDO WHO RAISED AFGHANISTAN WAR CRIME ALLEGATIONS FOUND DEAD Published: December 16, 2019

A "fearless" Australian commando who went public three years ago about his involvement in an alleged war crime in Afghanistan has died. Sergeant Kevin Frost is among hundreds of former and serving Defence Force personnel who have taken their own lives in the past two decades. Last week the 45-year-old went missing near his Busselton home, and over the weekend his family confirmed he had been found but had "tragically passed away". Friends have paid tribute online to their mate "Frosty", who they say was a "fearless", "proud" and "witty" man. His death comes as Prime Minister Scott Morrison says his Government will consider calling a royal commission next year into veterans' suicides.
