Great to have ADF Officers Lt Low and Lt Kearney visit today to meet with our hardworking defence team. The two will be the first from the ADF to study at Fiji’s Officers Training Centre – another milestone for the Vuvale Partnership. Grateful to @FijianGovt for this opportunity.

Great to see our Defence Attaché COL Haestch join OTC Commandant LTC Kumar to open the upgraded facilities at the Officers Training Centre today. Next week the two ADF officers will begin their study at the OTC alongside their RFMF counterparts. No pressure.

We recently added an ‘Honour Board’ to the RAM’s Retreat. The board highlights the achievements of a handful of our former members and was made possible by the generosity of the RAR Foundation. rarfoundation.org.au

Well done to the officers from @Rfmf_Media & An EXTREMELY epic alt account on graduating today from the RFMF’s Infantry Captains Course. It’s a tough course & to complete it in five weeks is impressive. Great to see the Australians, LT Kai & LT Matt, graduate alongside their Fijian peers. Vinaka.
