Thank you @CDF_Aust - I am humbled to take on this role. It is an honour to represent #YourADF and Australia in this forum, and to serve under the UN Flag as Deputy Military Advisor for @UN's Peacekeeping Operations.
It was a pleasure to attend the @UNPeacekeeping Ministerial Meeting in Ghana with @MThistlethwaite.
A great opportunity to discuss Australia's contribution to peacekeeping operations, solutions to global challenges & to strengthen relationships.
It was a pleasure to co-host 🇬🇧🇦🇺 Staff Talks with my @BritishArmy counterpart LTGEN Sharon Nesmith.
While in the UK I visited members of our #AusArmy deployed on #Opkudu doing important work training Ukrainian recruits.
Thank you to my French counterpart LTGEN Jean-Christophe Bechon for hosting successful 🇫🇷🇦🇺 Staff Talks in Paris. It was an opportunity to review our progress under our Bilateral Roadmap & build on recent cooperation, including on Talisman Sabre & Croix Du Sud.
A pleasure to co-host 🇦🇺🇳🇿 staff talks with my @NZArmy counterpart Brigadier Rose King in Wellington.
Our talks focussed on 4 key areas to achieve our outcomes under Plan ANZAC: strategic engagement, capability & modernisation, training & doctrine, & personnel & readiness.
It was a pleasure to chair @CanadianArmy Staff Talks with my 🇨🇦 counterpart MGen Peter Scott last month in Ottawa.
It's always a great opportunity for our teams to discuss our priorities and ongoing engagement - with our soldiers now working together on #TalismanSabre2023.

It is with deep sadness that I pay tribute to our four missing soldiers whose helicopter crashed while participating in Exercise Talisman Sabre.
I recently visited our close ally, the @USMC and my counterpart Brig. Gen. Simon Doran in Quantico, VA.
As the @AustralianArmy embarks on a period of ambitious reform, both services agreed to important advances in our technological, industrial and security cooperation.
Great to host Army Staff Talks with my Indonesian counterpart Major General Tri Winarno. It’s an important forum to discuss our Army cooperation agenda & numerous upcoming bilateral and multilateral activities such as Exercise Garuda Shield & Wirra Jaya.
While in Canberra we visited Royal Military College Duntroon & met the @TNI_AD cadets. Two cadets will soon graduate, making them the inaugural TNI-AD graduates of RMC.
RMC has a long history of exchange with TNI-AD, these cadets will be the first to complete the full program.
On 5 June I assumed the role of Deputy Chief of the Australian Army. I would like to thank LTGEN Natasha Fox for her continued service and commitment to Army & congratulate her on her new role as Chief of Personnel for the Australian Defence Force.
Today I had the honour of representing the ADF at the 82nd Anniversary of the Battle of Crete. It was a privilege to meet WWII veteran, Les Cook. Les is 100 years old, and served in Africa, Greece, Crete, Syria and PNG.
It was a pleasure to host Staff Talks with my Japanese counterpart, @Japan_GSDF Vice-Chief of Staff LTG Kobayashi.
Great discussions about moving forward on our 🇯🇵 🇦🇺 Five Year Army Roadmap.

A terrific Christmas message from @ChiefAusArmy as 2022 draws to a close.
“We have rebuilt readiness, we have partnered, innovated, modernised and served our communities and our nation, in times of desperate need.”
As 2022 draws to a close, it is time to pause and reflect. There is a lot for our #AusArmy to be proud of this year.
Have a safe and happy Christmas.
