24.01.2022 Update- Owner has been found and is super happy to be getting his medal back. He was a sailor serving on the HMAS Manoora in the Persian Gulf Thanks everyone f...or the help This was found in Caloundra Queensland a number of years ago after the Dawn Service. I tried to track down the owner through Veterans Affairs and had very little assistance, since seeing a few medals returned through this page I thought it would be worth a shot. Hopefully someone on here can track this veteran down and get it back to them. It is an Australian Active Service Medal with the Iraq 2003 clasp. it belongs to C.E Olive 8121556. Cheers to anyone who can help as I am sure they would love their original medal back.

22.01.2022 25th April 2020 this day has forever changed how we commemorate ANZAC Day. As a Veteran I stood out the front of my home and looked up and down my street to see my neighbours and family standing out the front with me. It brought a tear to my eye. I am proud to be an Australian and proud to have served my country. I also am proud to have started my little business mounting medals so my Veteran mates and families could wear them with pride on days like today. I do take pride in the quality of my mountings and would Like to say a big thankyou to all who wear my medals. Lest we Forget

22.01.2022 Congratulations CPO Walsh

19.01.2022 Today is a great day for our Navy, our nation and a young, Australian sailor who paid the highest price to save his shipmates from certain death. I welcome t...he announcement that today, the late Ordinary Seaman Teddy Sheean, will be recognised with the award of a Victoria Cross for Australia. The first for a member of the Royal Australian Navy. There is no higher honour than the Victoria Cross. Teddy Sheean’s story of bravery is well known in our Navy and we have long recognised his heroic and gallant actions. This story, this account, is the stuff of legend. Sheean’s actions on that day, 1 December 1942, were absolutely amongst the most conspicuous and most gallant we’ve seen in our Navy. Ordinary Seaman Sheean joined the Royal Australian Navy in 1941 from his hometown of Lower Barrington in Tasmania, when Australia was in the grip of the Second World War. Fresh from recruit school, he trained hard, took his duty seriously and showed loyalty to his mates. In 1942, at only 18 years’ of age, he was posted to HMAS Armidale as a loader for one of the ship’s three Oerlikon anti-aircraft guns. He was the youngest member of Armidale’s Ship’s Company. Less than six months later, in the vicinity of East Timor, HMAS Armidale came under a coordinated torpedo and bomb attack by enemy aircraft. Listing heavily to port from battle damage, the order was given to abandon ship. As the ship sank, Ordinary Seaman Sheean returned to his Action Station, and was wounded on the way. He strapped himself in to the Oerlikon anti-aircraft gun, potentially giving up any chance of survival, and opened fire at enemy aircraft. As bullets strafed his shipmates, Teddy continued to fire that gun until he himself, went down with the ship. His heroism has become a standard our men and women of our modern Navy aspire to. His spirit of courage, of sacrifice and of service is an enduring part of our Navy, living on through our Fleet and our People. Our Values are borne from the actions of those who have served before us, like Teddy, who in the face of adversity, showed service, courage, respect, integrity and excellence. I cannot understate the esteem in which he is held by our Navy People, past and present. HMAS Sheean, a Collins Class Submarine, is the first and only ship in the Royal Australian Navy to bear the name of an Ordinary Seaman. More than 500 of our submariners have proudly worn his name on their cap tally band over the last 20 years, and at least another 500 will do so in the years ahead. This is a proud moment for Teddy Sheean’s Family, who have fought for many decades for this outcome, and I congratulate them on their perseverance, and today’s announcement. This award, the Victoria Cross for Australia, is a great honour for the late Teddy Sheean, for his Shipmates, for his Family, for the Royal Australian Navy, for the Australian Defence Force, and for our Nation.

01.01.2022 FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SASR HISTORY, A GROUP OF 12 CURRENT AND FORMER SOLDIERS HAVE STEPPED OUT FROM THE SHADOWS TO REMIND THE COUNTRY WHAT THEY ARE, AND WHAT TH...EY ARE NOT. BY SAS SOLDIERS November 16, 2020 7.45pm We are the soldiers, the ‘Operators’ as we are known, who have served or are continuing to serve in the Special Air Service Regiment. We have decided to speak, as one, to the Australian public, who have trusted us and invested in us to defend our country for over 60 years. All of us have been carefully selected for the privilege of serving our country in the SASR. Our government has invested millions of dollars of public money in each one of us to provide you with unique and specialised capabilities in the defence of our nation. Our regiment is now the subject of the longest inquiry into allegations of war crimes conducted by the Australian Defence Force. Accusations and allegations of war crimes as well as failures of leadership cut to the very core of the SASR. Such actions go against the very purpose of who we are as an organisation, and against the very nature of who we are as individuals. We are not indifferent to human suffering. We do not have a callous disregard for human life. We are, however, selected for our unwavering moral compass, on which we proudly hang our Sandy Berets. We are not out of control. In fact, we have spent the majority of our professional soldiering careers in the SASR drilling and exercising, specifically to avoid casualties among non-combatants. An SAS soldier awaits the arrival of a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter in Afghanistan. We define SASR mission success by how precisely we can apply the minimum amount of force to achieve a desired strategic outcome with the absolute minimum loss of human life. This is evident in the tens of thousands of missions and programs we have carried out around the world. We are all singularly bound by the principle of "truth in reporting". This principle underpins our single most important regimental capability: long-range surveillance and reconnaissance. Truth in reporting enables the SASR to act as the operational eyes and ears of the Australian Defence Force and the Australian government. Without truth in reporting, we are nothing. As early as 2006, it was our commitment to truth in reporting that instigated what has now resulted in the four-year-long Brereton inquiry into allegations of war crimes in Afghanistan. Truth in reporting is why we speak up then and now. The matters before us are of an extremely grave nature, and we accept that the impact of the Brereton inquiry may adversely affect former and current serving members and their families, as well as our strategic relationships with other coalition forces around the world. Whatever the outcome, we prefer our regimental history to reflect hard truths over comforting fantasy. If it can be destroyed by the truth, it deserves to be destroyed by the truth. We also believe that the same principle of truth in reporting should be embraced by the media, so as not to unduly impugn the reputation of the SASR as a whole, or inadvertently imply improper behaviour committed by former or current serving members. Equally, we applaud accurate portrayals of misconduct provided it is supported by appropriate context and evidence. Just as we embrace truth in reporting, we demand our leadership to do the same. Leaders are bound in their duty to convey what we have seen and reported and we hold them to the same standards to which we hold ourselves. We hold our leadership to the same unforgiving standards to which we hold our teams, and ourselves, individually. It is our relentless pursuit of individual and organisational excellence that defines us as an organisation and a regiment. We lead by example. On combat operations, we were forced to sacrifice many of our technological advantages over highly adaptive adversaries who knew no rules or bounds. We accepted continually shifting goal posts and decisions made by governments in the absence of a defined campaign outcome in Afghanistan. We begrudgingly accepted these strategic decisions while attempting to effectively operate in an environment characterised by uncertainty, danger and our own casualties. We are not war criminals, nor have we ever set our morality aside. We are professional volunteer soldiers who frequently upheld the values of the Australian Army during a 10-year expeditionary campaign in the Middle East, despite the absence of any clear definition of victory. We believe in the same legal principles that underpin the very fabric of Australian society, something that we have sworn to defend with our lives. We support the removal from the regiment and legal prosecution of anyone found guilty of breaching the laws of armed conflict, the Geneva Convention or the rules of engagement. We outright reject and despise criminality in all its forms, especially in the context of soldiering. We support unbiased investigatory due process, the rule of law and the burden of proof. There is absolutely no place in the ADF, least of all in the SASR, for any individual who believes they are untouchable or above the law. Having had full legal representation, should it be proven that any former or current serving individuals within the SASR have acted outside the law or the expected standards and behaviours demanded of an Australian soldier, we underline that we will wholeheartedly support their prosecution and removal from the regiment. They have acted against everything the SASR fights and stands for. They are not one of us. We are committed to accepting the outcomes and consequences of the Brereton inquiry and to action its recommendations. Then we will return to the shadows where we belong. We do not seek to be glorified for our actions or demonstrating our moral courage. We only seek the validation that truth in reporting is who we are and what we do. We are proud of the internal examinations into our regiment that have highlighted a culture of toughness and professionalism of the extraordinary men and women who do extraordinary work under extraordinary circumstances. We are the tactical, operational and strategic eyes and ears for the ADF and the Australian government, with strategic and innovative capabilities to reach out and strike our adversaries when required. We are soldiers, we are professionals, and we are Australians. We are committed to upholding the values of the Australian Defence Force. We believe in truth in reporting, moral courage and constant vigilance from the shadows in defence of Australia. We are the SASR. Who Dares Wins. See more
