Service for 9 lost servicement at KSA airport

Just watched the service today held at Sydney International airport for the arrival of the Bodies of the 9 servicemen who gave their lives helping others.

It was the most emotional thing i have seen on TV for a long time, made me proud to be an Australian. and not only that, but seeing the President of Indonesia giving his countries highest medal of Honour to our guys was especially memorable and moving. Prime minister John howard looked visibly upset.

A great job done by all in bringing our guys home, and may they rest in piece and in our memories forever.
