I hope this guy comes to the US and does some training with the SEALS and SWCC at Fort Knox, because I would dearly love to buy him a couple of beers. I’ll even make them Australian if that makes him happy.

Most Aussie servicemen take the sensible attitude that if somebody else is buying then any beer is good beer.

This man should never have to buy his own beer again in any bar or pub where people know who he is.

You Aussies are some very stouthearted folks. I have read a multitude of books related to WW2 in the Pacific, and the job the 'diggers' did in the Middle East and New Guinea was nothing short of heroic. Your navy has an equally illustrious history.

My hat is off to this incredibly brave man, and to all who serve in your armed forces.
