The advance party of the Al Muthanna Task Group (AMTG) commemorated ANZAC Day with a Dawn Service at their Iraq operating base, Camp Smitty, in the province of Al Muthanna.

Australia’s partners in the province, the UK and Japan, also participated in the service.

The advance party will prepare for the arrival of the remainder of the AMTG, which will progressively deploy into the Middle East Area of Operations between mid-April and May 2005.

The AMTG’s mission is to provide security and support for the Japanese Iraq Reconstruction and Support Group and the Australian Army Training Team - Iraq, which will train parts of the Iraqi Army.
