US Marines depart the Top End 1. Oct 1. 7 1. 5 Oct 1. The 2. 01. 7 Marine Rotational Force Darwin MRF D has begun its departure from Darwin, bringing to an end the sixth rotation of US Marines through Northern Australia under the United States Force Posture Initiatives USFPI. This years force rotation was the most advanced contingent to date, involving 1. US Marines and an Aviation Combat Element ACE consisting of 1. Deputy Commander of Northern Command Captain Bryan Parker said the ACE included four MV 2. Ospreys tilt rotor aircraft for the first time, in addition to five AH 1. W Super Cobra helicopters, four UH 1. Y Venom helicopters and a range of other equipment. This years rotation was a significant milestone for the USFPI programme, and the advanced MRF D 1. Marine Air Ground Task Force was a clear demonstration of the ongoing commitment Australia and the US have to achieving the objectives of the Force Posture Initiatives, Captain Parker said. Throughout this rotation, we saw increased capability and flexibility of the MRF D and the Australian Defence Force ADF to operate together on broad range of combined exercises and training activities. During the six month rotation, the MRF D conducted approximately 1. ADF, including Exercises Talisman Sabre, Kowari, Diamond Storm, Southern Frontier, Crocodile Strike, Southern Jackaroo and Koolendong. These exercises provided an opportunity for US Marines and the ADF to interact with a range of countries, including China, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. For the first time, Australia and the US exercised as a combined force how they would deploy Humanitarian AssistanceDisaster Relief assistance on land and sea to a remote location. This exercise reinforced the clear benefits of a joint Australian US approach to natural disaster events. Australias alliance with the United States is our most important defence relationship and remains central to Australias security, Captain Parker said. The presence of the United States Marines across the Northern Territory plays a vital role in underwriting security and stability across the Indo Pacific, and the Force Posture Initiatives are an essential component in preserving stability and security over the coming decades. We look forward to next years MRF D rotation and expect to continue to enhance our interoperability and collective capabilities. The 2. MRF D is an extension of Australias existing defence relationship with the US that provides the opportunities to enhance practical military cooperation and interoperability and contributes to strengthening security in Australia and throughout the Indo Pacific region.

The Australian Defence Force ADF commenced Exercise NORTHERN SHIELD in Northern Queensland today to test its rapid deployment capability to remote areas of northern Australia to defend the country and its national interests. Chief of Joint Operations Vice Admiral David Johnston said NORTHERN SHIELD was taking place in and around Weipa until 2. October, and was an important annual training activity for the ADF. The NORTHERN SHIELD series of exercises allows us to test maritime, land, air, space and supporting capabilities across a variety of scenarios at short notice to ensure that we maintain the state of preparedness that our government requires, Vice Admiral Johnston said. The exercise includes practising our ability to conduct short notice evacuation operations for civilians, which is a key task for Defence. This year, the exercise will involve around 4. ADF personnel primarily from the Army and Air Force in training activities around Weipa and will also see the use of the Royal Australian Air Force Base Scherger. Each year the focus, location and scale of NORTHERN SHIELD changes to ensure we cover the range of capabilities that may be required from the Australian Government. NORTHERN SHIELDs two previous iterations were conducted in the Kimberley and Pilbara regions of North Western Australia. Exercise NORTHERN SHIELD 1. October. Defence News and Media. Philippines homecoming for Australian Navy officer 1. Oct 1. 7 1. 3 Oct 1. One member onboard HMAS Adelaide was keener than most to get ashore when the ship recently visited Manila, Philippines, because it was the first chance to see his mother and brother in more than five years. Lieutenant Commander Lucito Irlandez was born in Manila before migrating to Australia in 1. It was my love of travel and sense of adventure that inspired me to leave my family and seek new opportunities in Australia, Lieutenant Commander Irlandez said. One of my jobs in Manila was as a college instructor teaching engineering so in Australia I soon found a civilian job at HMAS Nirimba, in Western Sydney, teaching electronics to Royal Australian Navy apprentices and sailors. When HMAS Nirimba closed in 1. Lieutenant Commander Irlandez moved to HMAS Cerberus in Victoria and continued teaching sailors in the Radio Building and then in the Technical Training Faculty. Not one to rest on his laurels, Lieutenant Commander Irlandez decided to join the Navy as a Training Specialist Officer and pursue further opportunities. I really enjoy teaching and one of the highlights of my career has been teaching Filipino students under the Defence Cooperation Program, Lieutenant Commander Irlandez said. On day one when I first walk in the classroom you can see the Filipino students are so scared, but once I talk to them in their native language they instantly relax and feel like I am an old friend. The Filipino culture is famous for hospitality, everyone knows their neighbours by first name. You can knock on their door any time and be served a meal it is the thing I miss most. Lieutenant Commander Irlandez is the Training Officer onboard HMAS Adelaide responsible for managing the training for the entire crew of about 4. I need to ensure everyone attains the right skills and knowledge to successfully do their jobs, which means they have the right training at the right time to fight and win at sea, he said. HMAS Adelaide is currently participating in Indo Pacific Endeavour 2. September to November 2. Understanding Exposure Bryan Peterson Ebook Pdf Converter. Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief exercises. Defence News and Media. Transcript Interview with ABC Four Corners regarding PFAS investigations fire fighting foam1. Oct 1. 7 4 Oct 1. So this is a legacy issue. It goes back to the 1. At that time, there was a fire fighting foam product made by the 3. M Company called Lightwater, and Defence and many other organisations that had a need to extinguish fuel based fires used that product and others like it for putting out fires. The products were deemed to be environmentally safe and safe for people at that time certainly the manufacturers said they were safe and so the people that used them over years, over decades for training in the main had no idea or conception that by putting those products into the soil, that they would still be there many decades later and that they would migrate through the environment. So thats the nature of this issue. Its been a slowly emerging issue over quite a long time. Defence is probably at the leading edge in Australia in terms of activities to try and understand where these chemicals are in the environment in terms of the investigations that were running here at Williamtown and at other places in the country. Were also at the leading edge in this country in terms of trying to understand techniques for cleaning up these chemicals. The chemicals we now know are very persistent in the environment and theyre very difficult to break down.
