Soldiers from the Adelaide based 7RAR Task Group are now advising the Afghan National Army’s 4th Brigade after a recent Transfer of Authority ceremony in Tarin Kot.
An advisory task force based on the 7th Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment, has replaced personnel from the Townsville-based 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment.
Lowering the 3 RAR flag and raising the 7 RAR flag at Multi National Base Tarin Kot represented the formal change of command authority for Australia’s primary force contribution to Afghanistan.
A reversal of our 2nd tour of South Vietnam when the 7RAR flag was lowered and the 3RAR flag raised at Nui Dat.
