Thanks for your service and be proud to wear your service medals

I Cant believe the point she made about the medals.I would have thought by now that people would understand there are a lot of women in the 3 services. A realistic story told honestly. I actually think she should get a lot more recognition for her efforts. It’s must be hard moving around like she did. She is the type of unselfish non complaining person this country is supposed to be about.

Tell people who ask you if those medals are yours and you tell them how much of your life you gave to protect them the great country of Australia, Tell them you do not need to justify to anyone who did not serve in the military about how you earned your metals with pride and honor, I salute you for you service. I severed my country for 12 years in the US Navy, I gave m life make the world safe, my ship visited Perth and found that people in Australia a good folk. I am honored to here your story!

And if you ever feel useless. just remember the US took 4 presidents 20 years and trillions of dollars to replace the Taliban with Taliban. No wait this is brilliant. Americas enemies can laugh themselves to death.🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣

I have great respect for those who serve. While you were in danger over there, there were many back here who appreciate the job you were doing there. Thank you.

Thank you for this video. Terrific story and well done Able Seaman Humphrey for living her dream. Small tip to the producer, try framing the subject center of field and not by a random open window. Just my opinion. Cheers

Great interview. Kerrin is just the kind of witness the Royal Commission into the difficulties and tragedies, that in many cases ultimately end up with suicides that has taken so many of our ADF members. AND WE WILL GET THE ROYAL COMMISSION. Her story of her experiences on returning from deployments and separating from the Navy is so important for our future ADF members. BZ Kerrin. Aye.

I admire you, because you have served. Thank you for your honest interview. Best of luck for your future!!

I served in the army as an Infantry solider from 88 to 95 and females weren't very well recognised within the defence force and im pleased that women of today have much better choice of jobs within our defence force and have know hesitation serving with women as i have done promotion courses with women and some of them were far better than some of the males that served in the infantry so to all thew women in our Defence force i salute you all to a job well done and in most cases better than the men and to all current and serving men and women i say thank you for your service

Excellent story, shipmate. Fair winds and following seas. OSC(SW) Retired.

I hope she sees this comment.. Thankyou for your service, and Thankyou for your story! 🙂

What a great interview, especially your comments towards the end with regard to life and headspace on leaving the Services. I currently have two daughters serving - one in Navy and one in RAAF, with a third child heading to Navy. The diversity of their positions and opportunities available to them is great, but as any parent, am concerned about their headspace and I found this enlightening. BZ and thank you for your Service. You deserve to wear your medals proudly.

@@deathlyspectre7755 I'm not quite 26 yet and I thought I was applying late in life but it's cool seeing people older than me just trying to get in now. The thing I've struggled with the most is settling 100% on a role that I really want to do because there's about 4 that I'm extremely interested in that are right up my alley. But then a couple are relatively lengthy wait times or they are full. Out of curiosity, what role(s) are you hoping to get in as?

I am still in the process of my application and have to do medical and interview. How long is the waiting period after these stage to know if you made it for military training? Thank you.

Wear 'em proudly, mate. We saw you earn them. 😉 Vires Acquirit Eundo

The lack of support & humanitarian aid to Timor by the Australians military, sickens me to my core, indeed. [Plus] It's a mystery to me honour

i have a question. what does a boatswain's mate do on an average day?

Wow

There be good food on that big awesome magnificent tub, oooh that's right it's a boat, its beautiful anyhow and I bet the food is good, Thursday its not cooks time in the barrel

That’s great. If you finished high school, why be a Bosuns mate? A commission would have been better. Although you can go in to higher things!

Technically they are all warships. Supply ships and multi role vessels , will be sent to war. Fire support and escort roles, combat patrols are one thing, but a frigate or destroyer cannot do essential duties that a LHD, AOR , or that hydrographic, dive support and mine countermeasures those ships specialise in. They simply dont have the space to do so. Each type ship are just as important. Can a frigate,destroyer that specializes in warfare delivery hundreds of combat troops to shore, several helicopters and hundreds of tons of supplies? No. Can it offload oversized cargo by heavy crane? No. Can it offload dozens of armoured vehicles? No. What about refueling , rearming said warship at sea? Hell no. Or even operate in Antarctic waters? Nope. Recovery of that blackhawk with a dive support vessel like HMNZS Manuwanui with a heavy crane , Multiple onboard sonar systems ,dive team and fully equipped decompression chamber and moonpool area for deep sea recovery with dedicated ROV bay would of recovered that Blackhawk and crew in days, not months they stated.

West good A.D,AL,AU(...Angkatan Darat Jenderal).? Goods.

What is a "humanitarian vessel?" Comfortable furniture for the crew?

Ian Robinson Darryl is the sort who is the loud mouth in the bar who suddenly becomes silent, and lets others deal with any trouble. Anyone who disrespects anyone who serves is a lot worse than just a wally. My grandfather was wounded on the Somme in World War I and stayed at his machine gun despite his leg half blown off. Darryl is too stupid to know that real people sacrificed and faced real danger and pain with courage for his freedom to be an a** h*le.
