In this Army News edition, we celebrate the consecration and presentation of the Colours for 2nd/1st Battalion RNZIR on behalf of King Charles III. Tā Bom Gillies, the last 28 (Maori) Battalion veteran, is farewelled at his tangihana in Rotorua. We meet our Soldier of the Year, showcase new utility vehicles and celebrate Changes of Command across our forces. The magazine showcases our Reserve Force personnel on exercise and in person, and we congratulate the Army News' long-time editor, Judith Martin, on over 30 years as a storyteller for the Defence Force.
This issue marks the end of an era as it is the final time our service magazine will be produced. We have loved creating Army News for our readers, but it is time to look towards a different way of delivering our stories and updates.
As we step into 2025, we will publish all our articles on NZDF.mil.nz, where we digitally showcase the latest Army news. As we say haere rā to our service magazines, we look forward to looking to continuing to share stories of our military with you.
