Join us at week's close to honour those who have served and sacrificed so that we may enjoy our lives of relative peace, comfort and freedom.

Each Sunday we pause to remember a different event from Australia's military history. We remember the men and women who took part in those events, and the lives lost or forever changed. 

This week's service recognises Operation Quickstep, which began on 31 October 2006. The ADF ensured the safety of Australians and foreign nationals caught in the midst of the Fijian military coup. We honour the ADF's swift response and commitment to protecting Australians abroad.

Shrine Representative:

  • Shrine Governor. Lieutenant Colonel David Blackwell OAM RFD
