Tentatively "survived". I would have been aged in my 20s and as a former Army Reservist I would have been recalled into service, but I'd had a severe motorcycle accident a few years before and wouldn't have been physically capable of returning to the infantry. Even assuming the petroleum refinery south of Perth was nuked, I'm far enough away that it wouldn't have killed me, but I might have been shipped off by the military to another part of the continent or possibly even overseas by then, I guess in a support role of some sort.
