Warwick was born on the 29th January 1915 in Mosman, NSW and enlisted on 23rd October 1940.
Keelo was a quiet man, and a little shy. He became an instrument specialist with No. 457 Squadron, "A" Flight, joining at Andreas in the Isle of Man, UK. He stayed with 457 until May 1944.
He was later commissioned and went back to the Darwin area. He was discharged on 31st January 1946 from No. 58 OBASU.
On leaving he bought a small cattle property at Bundanoon, NSW. Keelo was always very supportive of The Spitfire Association and helped at all their "do's".
