In 1965, Lee was drafted into the Australian Army to fight in the Vietnam War, but through his parents'interventions ( on grounds of national security ), he was able to return to the UK . He spent the next two years at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London and continued to build his portfolio, photographing bands including the Kinks and the Who, and securing jobs for fashion clients keen to be seen in the colour supplements then new in British newspapers.
