As the clock strikes 8pm each and every night, Menin Gate stands still. 

Traffic is stopped in the streets surrounding the Menin Gate Memorial in Belgium, as the solemn notes of the Last Post ring out, played by buglers stationed under the Memorial’s arches. 

This weekend I will travel to the Western Front to undertake a series of commitments in the lead up to Anzac Day. 

A national campaign is being launched today to share the benefits of employing ex-service personnel in the civilian workplace.  

As the hearings for the Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide conclude, the Albanese Government remains focused on supporting veterans’ transition to civilian life.

One of the key factors to having a successful transition is finding fulfilling civilian work post service.

As Anzac Day approaches, we not only remember those who served on the beaches of Gallipoli and the trenches of the Western Front, but all Australians who have served and sacrificed and the 103,000 who have died in the name of our nation.
