Damian McMeekin, Chair of the Australian Medals Foundation Awards said,

“The sharp quality and value of the security sector’s service to the community was seen in

two members’ awards for valour, earned without regard to their own safety, and in 25 further

awards to members who contributed to saving lives through the  application of first aid.”
