Treks always involve a lot of organisation and preparation.

Of interest, most of those who seek help by attending the programs are ex-Royal Australian Regiment members. So it is appropriate and well-targeted as this money goes directly to those members and families in need. […]
L/Cpl Brian Budden, ex 5 RAR and veteran, has donated to the Foundation on three previous occasions. On each, he has dedicated the bequest to one of the men killed while he was on operations with the battalion in Vietnam. The latest donation is to remember Major Don Bourne, the story below. Donald Mackenzie […]
