Welcome home ❤️ #OpMazurka Rotation 57A has returned to 🇦🇺 recently following a deployment to the Sinai Peninsula, Egypt. The new rotation have commenced their roles within the Multinational Force & Observers, supervising security provisions of the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty.

🇦🇺 is providing Royal Australian Air Force support to 🇵🇬 as part of His Holiness Pope Francis’ Apostolic visit to Port Morseby & Vanimo. Christianity reaches into some of the most remote parts of PNG & Australia. We’re honoured & proud to be able to support PNG on this momentous occasion.

Quite the photo. Australian defence force personnel snap a photo with the Pope before flying him up to small coastal town of Vanimo (near the Indonesian border) on a military transport plane

Definitely a day in the office I won’t forgot! Ewen McDonald Royal Australian Air Force

A great day spent solving common concerns across the globe on the Command Senior Enlisted Leaders course NATO School Oberammergau. Sometimes changing the environment changes the mindset. PME for our enlisted leaders is vital for multinational interoperability.
