Australian troops serving in the Middle East and Afghanistan and former troops who served their country overseas have expressed their frustration with Defence Organisation with inferior equipment and disputes with allied and their local counterparts. But the greatest dissatisfaction was over family support and family issues. There are concerns that Defence as a whole was not doing enough to support the families of soldiers deployed overseas.
Australian Defence Force has promised to provide more support for the families. Hope the government will have budget or increase in budget for the support of ADF personnel and their families, who are serving this country’s interest with their own lives at stake.
