This year, to commemorate Anzac Day, Sergeant Tim Hibberd joins me to give some insight into his experience whilst serving in Afghanistan.
He also shares what Anzac Day means to him as a returned soldier in the 21st Century and gives a prodigious account of the significance of the Last Post.
Sergeant Hibberd served as an Aircraft Maintenance Manager, UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems) Mission Commander, and UAS/Tiger Maintenance Training Course Manager during his time in Afghanistan.
His story is more poignant given the recent announcement of the withdrawal of troops in Afghanistan. Hearing his account has given me a great deal of understanding and context around how an entire generation of the ADF would be feeling about the withdrawal.
I hope you enjoy the telling of Tim's story.
Lest We Forget.
Many thanks to Isaac Regional Council and the Qld Government for their support in bringing this interview to you.
