He sounded like a good man and pretty hardcore being SF. Sounds like a classic soldier.

The Jewish soldier was a member of the Sydney-based 1st Commando Regiment...
"Greg, for all who knew him, was a man of purpose and committed determination."
"He was an extremely positive person with a kind soul."
"He was the sort of mate who would do anything for anyone, and his friends knew him for the great guy that he was."
In 2004, he completed the commando selection course and joined the 1st Commando Regiment, moving on to complete the suite of Special Forces courses required to become a qualified commando.
For his service in East Timor, Private Sher received the Australian Active Service Medal, the UN Transitional Authority in East Timor Medal and the Infantry Combat Badge.
Private Sher has also been awarded the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, the NATO Medal with ISAF Clasp, the Australian Defence Medal and the Returned from Active Service Badge.
