Battle Group Waratah conducted Protection Operations in Ingham



Over 200 members of Battle Group Waratah, mostly made up or Reservists from New South Wales conducted Protection Operations in Ingham as part of Exercise Talisman Sabre 2023.

Exercise Talisman Sabre 2023 was conducted across northern Australia from 22 July to 4 August.

More than 30,000 military personnel from 13 nations will directly participate in Talisman Sabre 2023, primarily in Queensland but also in Western Australia, the Northern Territory and New South Wales.

Talisman Sabre is the largest Australia-US bilaterally planned, multilaterally conducted exercise and a key opportunity to work with likeminded partners from across the region and around the world.

Fiji, France, Indonesia, Japan, Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Tonga, the United Kingdom, Canada and Germany are all participating in Talisman Sabre 2023 with the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand attending as observers.

Occurring every two years, Talisman Sabre reflects the closeness of our alliance and strength of our enduring military relationship with the United States and also our commitment to working with likeminded partners in the region.

Now in its tenth iteration, Talisman Sabre provides an opportunity to exercise our combined capabilities to conduct high-end, multi-domain warfare, to build and affirm our military-to-military ties and interoperability, and strengthen our strategic partnerships.

  1. No wonder so many Oz Army people are being medically discharged with bad backs. Why the need to carry so much stuff? I served in SE Asia in 67/68 and we carried nowhere near that amount.
