    Welcome home parade, Operation Slipper

    WELCOME HOME PARADE FOR YOUNGER VETERANS - OPERATION SLIPPER







    The end of 2014 will mark the conclusion of Operation SLIPPER, Australia's military contribution to the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) mission in Afghanistan, and the

    International Coalition against Terrorism (ICAT) mission across Afghanistan and the Middle East which commenced in October 2001.


    Since Australia commenced deployments to Afghanistan, over 33000 Australian Defence Force personnel, Australian Public Service employees and Australian Federal Police have deployed to

    the Middle East Area of Operations as part of the operation. The Prime Minister announced, on Saturday 01 March 2014, that a nation-wide commemoration activity marking the end of



    Operation SLIPPER will be held on Saturday 21 March 2015. A commemoration activity will be conducted in each State and Territory capital city and Townsville.

    Op Slipper

    All the best to all.

    My 3yrs in Tarin Kowt were a significant life experience that still echoes with me.
