Latest Technology

Soldiers from 5th Brigade have been given training to safely use drones for a range of activities.

This kind of innovative training is not only useful for their Army careers, but civilian jobs too. Drones will be issued to each unit in 5 Brigade allowing our soldiers to train with this technology over the coming year.

Soldiers from the 41st Battalion have done their training with the drone technology which will be very useful in training .

Each year the soldiers of the 2nd Division (approx. 30,000) which represent the Army Reserve in Australia , through a qualifying event get the right to contest the 2nd Division military section comp if they are good enough.

Units provide a team to contest the Brigade section competition and the winners then go on to contest the 2 Division competition (41st Battalion won the Brigade competition).
