Battle of the Forces

May 29, 2000

Are you physically fit? Do you want to complete for Navy against the other services?

Do you want to be on television?

Then fame awaits on Defence force recruiting battle of the forces.

Following the success of last years Battle of the forces there will be another series often episodes, to be screened on Channel 9 this summer.

It promises to be bigger and better than last year, with filming in Perth, Darwin, southern Victoria and in Sydney-Canberra.

Participants work in teams of two, and are tested by physically demanding challenges while competing against teams from the other services.

Filming is to take place between June and august, at times best suited for bases and units in the filming locations.

Both male and female competitors are needed.

All ADF personnel, full and part-time, are invited to apply, particularly if from the filming locations.

Clearances will be sought from unit commanders, following confirmation of filming dates and short-listing of potential competitors.

If you think you are tough enough for the challenge, then contact the project officer, CAPT Keith Joseph, from the Directorate of Public Information (Army), on 0414 783 452, or on e-mail at keij@bigpond.com as soon as possible.
