Good luck to the recruits. I'm so proud to be an Aussie every time I see the ADF in action and whenever I see the arduous training required to serve.

The Battle of Shaggy Ridge was the 1st the 58th/59th Battalion historical battles PNG WW2 "Lest We Forget"

[@snorikgu24]

The name "Shaggy Ridge" caught my attention. The Battle of Shaggy Ridge was part of the Finisterre Range Campaign which consisted of a number of actions fought by the Australian and Japanese troops (with the natives 🇵🇬 sandwiched between the conflict) in Papua New Guinea in World War II. To this day, Shaggy Ridge remains an historically significant place for conducting military exercises.

I am proud of being Aussie and my family ties with ADF and British army. I am very thankfully

[@MakeMineMelodic]

Thank you for your service.

This training would really test their headspace and ability to stay focused to keep concentration and control of thoughts running amok in their head that fatigue caused to happen

[@difficultinterest1582]

Ahhhh Majura. Don't we love it

[@PencilProper]

Well done to all the Aussies serving in the ADF. Keep serving with honour and integrity and do yourselves and us proud!

[@infaereld2055]

Thank you guys, I'm so impressed. I'd never be able to do this. Love how pragmatic the soldiers are about the whole thing. Massive respect!

Good work to those PTI's. The head dodging the yellow rope exercise looked handy for self defence.
