On the 11th of November 2024, I had the privilege of attending the Remembrance Day service at the Cabra-Vale Diggers Club. It was a deeply moving occasion where we gathered to honour and remember the courageous men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of our country in all wars and armed conflicts. We paused to reflect on those who lost their lives, went missing in action, or were wounded, and also those who continue to live with the impact of their service. Their bravery and commitment to our nation's security are immeasurable, and it is because of their sacrifices that we are able to live in a safe and peaceful environment. The ceremony was not just about remembering the fallen but also recognizing the families who have carried the weight of their loved ones' sacrifices. Their strength and perseverance are equally deserving of our respect and gratitude. Attending the service was a poignant reminder of the importance of preserving the legacy of these heroes. It was an honour to stand alongside fellow Australians and reflect on the freedoms we enjoy, lest we forget.
