Paying tribute to the peacekeepers

In 1947 Australians were part of the first United Nations peacekeeping operation. Since that time, more than 66,000 Australian women and men have served in more than 60 international peacekeeping operations. On Wednesday, September 14th, those efforts were commemorated.
