Australia is one of the world’s biggest spenders on defence. Since the Boer War, rural people and places have been a vital part of this protective umbrella. Across the Defence Force are some 60,000 personnel – approximately 30,000 in the Army and 15,000 each in the Air Force and Navy. They’re based across the country, from Tasmania to the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, with our three Army combat brigades based in Darwin, Brisbane and Townsville, and about 2300 personnel are deployed elsewhere in the world. Join us as we explore Australia’s defence forces in the bush in the fascinating feature Our best defence. Along with our perennial favourites of Dogs, Boots, Bush kids, Bush weddings and more.
