Overview

ARMY 125 years of Service to the Nation, meet our soldiers and view their equipment on Duncan Oval from 1:00pm-7:00pm

Meet the soldiers who have made a career in the Army, discover the gear they use, ask them about the training they go through and ask them about comraderie - what it means to be part of a team.

Check out the vehicles so you can spot them on the road and know what they are - 40M, HX77, Hawkei, Bushmaster, Boxer. Then talk to those who support the soldiers on the ground from health to those gathering information or providing lines of support. Find a career in the Army you did not know about.
