 Governor-General of Australia, Her Excellency Quentin Brice, recently visited the National Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, Hawaii to pay her respects to the fallen troops buried there and to discuss Australia's strong partnership with the US military. Please stand for the arrival of the Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia, Her Excellency Quentin Brice and Mr Brice. What I want to say to you is how honoured I am to be here at this sacred place, to honour the service and sacrifice of American Defence personnel. We share a very special bond, a very strong alliance and we understand how much this very significant memorial means to your country as it does to ours. Strong bonds were forged in wartime in World War I but strengthened of course in this part of the world during World War II where we served together in very many battles, lost many of our Defence personnel. It's a wonderful thing for me to be here to pay tribute to that friendship that aligns. From the Defence Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer James Stollepack.
