Peter Haran - 1948-2025

Just a short post to mark the passing of my dad, Peter Haran.

Peter died on February 10, 2015, the day before his 77th birthday.

I won’t write his biography here - plenty about his extraordinary life can be found from other sources (see below).

But I was very proud of him and grateful for the time we had together.

We travelled to Vietnam in 2014 and made some videos about Peter’s experiences in the Vietnam War - you can watch them at this playlist link.

He also gave a very extensive interview about his life in 2004 which can be found here, both in video form and written transcript.

And among the books Peter wrote about the war is Trackers, an autobiographical account of his journey with a war dog named Caesar.

Peter was a soldier, journalist, artist, husband, dad, and poppy.

We will miss him.
