Welcome to Eagle Eye, our new column that will take a look at the lighter side of life and happenings in the Air Force and the wider ADF. We hope you enjoy what is designed to be an easy, breezy feature. And we hope you will contribute your amusing, lively and interesting anecdotes to ensure Eagle Eye occupies an eyrie in Air Force News for some time to come.


Congratulations to RAAF Base Tindal airman Flight Sergeant Jamie Auld, below, who has deployed on operations overseas for the first time in his 19-year career. His role in Iraq has been to provide logistic support to the Joint Task Force Headquarters personnel, the Australian Embassy and the other military personnel throughout Baghdad and surrounding areas. Always on the lookout for “firsts” and records, we were wondering if anyone has waited longer than 19 years for a stint overseas?

If so, email us at raafnews@defencenews.gov.au.

RAAF Base East Sale aren’t the only ones to add a little fun to sport with their novelty games (see story on page 27). Last year Flight Lieutenant Grant Everett, above, and some of his friends participated in the TFSPO Charity Triathlon for the Autism Association at RAAF Base Williamtown. Apparently dress ups were allowed, but they were the only ones game enough to do it.
