Today is National Peacekeepers’ Day 🕊
From conflict zones to humanitarian missions, their service has helped bring stability and hope to communities around the world.
Past and present, we honour the courage, sacrifice, and dedication of Australia’s peacekeepers.
Merchant Navy Day was commemorated on 3rd September with a service at the Navigator Memorial, Port Adelaide.
Lest We Forget their service and sacrifice in maintaining supplies during wartime, and in peacetime for stability of our large, island nation.
