Thank you to the graduates, families, friends and instructors of No. 285 ADF Pilots’ Course for the honour of serving as Reviewing Officer at RAAF Pearce. A proud day recognising extraordinary effort and achievement. Thank you, @WOFFAF for joining me.

The RAAF Museum reminds us that while Air Force continues to evolve to meet new challenges, our people remain our greatest advantage. Alongside @WOFFAF, I was privileged to recognise two members awarded the 5th Clasp to the Long Service Medal — the Federation Star. #AusAirForce

Congrats to the newest ADF Chefs graduating from HMAS Cerberus. @WOFFAF and I sampled their outstanding “East Meets West” showcase—reflecting months of hard work, skill, and teamwork. ADF personnel are in capable hands.

Continuing our visit to RAAF Base Williamtown, @WOFFAF and I joined graduates, instructors and guests at the Air Warfare Instructor Course (AWIC) Graduation Dinner in Lovedale, NSW. Congratulations to all graduates on reaching this significant milestone.

Thank you to WGCDR Vicky Bezuidenhout and WOFF Paul Crouch for welcoming @WOFFAF and I to RAAF Base Williamtown. During our official visit, we met with members of No. 1 Security Forces Squadron, No. 3 Control and Reporting Unit, and No. 4 Squadron.

Over the last two days, @WOFFAF and I had the opportunity to meet some of the Air Domain Team at RAAF Base Amberley who contribute to RAAF’s mission of generating and delivering highly effective air power as part of an integrated and focused force. #AusAirForce #YourADF #AusArmy

It was an honour to attend the Last Post Ceremony at the Australian War Memorial to acknowledge the 103rd birthday of our Air Force.   The ceremony paid tribute to Flying Officer John Hester Venn who served in World War Two as a pilot for No. 2 Squadron.

The Defence Strategic Review describes the challenges we face, and tackles them head on. Change will be required, but the change is both positive and necessary.

@WOFFAF and I recently spent time in WA visiting our Aviators at RAAF Base Pearce and RAAF Base Learmonth. Thank you to the personnel we met with for their engagement and contributions to valuable discussions, and for a fantastic visit! #AusAirForce

I am inspired by our Air Force Indigenous Liaison Officers who are sharing their experiences and guiding me & our non-Indigenous Defence leaders on our journey to understand their rich culture. What will you do to close the gap? #DefenceIndigenousChampion #ClosingTheGap #YourADF
