Prime Minister Scott Morrison has paid tribute to members of the Australian Defence Force in a Christmas message:

“Merry Christmas to everyone in our Australian Defence Force.

You know, throughout our history, successive Australian governments have called on our ADF to respond to the most difficult and challenging of circumstances. And this year was no different.

We’ve made repeated calls on our defence forces, but especially here at home.

During our Black Summer of fires, we called on you to help keep Australians safe.

We called on you again in response to a once in a century pandemic, an unexpected challenge. But where once again the skill, adaptability and professionalism of our ADF was put to work keeping Australians safe.

We know you’re far from home. You’re upholding our nation’s interests. You’re defending our values. You are shining lights of our country.”
