Last Christmas, Beccy went to Iraq to entertain Australian and allied troops.

I think it is worth pointing out that Australia ultimately decorated the Australian entertainers who went to Vietnam to entertain our troops - they were awarded the Vietnam Logistics and Support Medal. These people make a real contribution and it must be honoured and respected. The same medal was also awarded to some people who went to Vietnam to provide canteens for troops, QANTAS air and cabin crew who ensured our travelling troops travelled as comfortably as possible, civilian doctors and nurses.
I think it's important for civilians to know that they can make a real contribution to the defence of civilisation. There's lots of ways to do it.
