Brian Parry served as a naval diver and bomb specialist with the Australian forces in Vietnam. He qualified as a ship's captain.

He had two marriages, and two children from the first marriage. He then met a new female partner who stayed with him during and after transition.

Brian was recognized as Hobart's Citizen of the year in 1998 for his work building square riggers and involving local disadvantaged youth, but by then had transitioned to Sarah.
