Description
Australian Defence Force personnel take on the role of sentries in the catafalque party during the ANZAC Day dawn service at the Australian Camp As Sayliyah. The location of a large United States military base, Camp As Sayliyah was the site for the central command and the Coalition Media Centre during Operation Falconer. Camp As Sayliyah became the home to Australian Defence Force personnel and civilians serving in the Middle East Area of Operations (MEAO) as part of the Australian commitment to the coalition forces assembled to disarm Iraq.
