Martin
proud of heritage
Ray Martin from Channel 9 is proud to be an Aussie, thanks to ADF nurses.
Shortly
after the Boxing Day tsunami, he found himself embedded with ADF nurses working
at the Anzac Hospital in Banda Aceh.
In his keynote address to the nurses
conference, he said that in more than 40 years of journalism he had travelled
over two million miles, visited more than 100 countries and covered thousands
of stories. This included war and conflict in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Northern
Ireland, Israel, Lebanon, Grenada, El Salvador and Panama.
Mr Martin spent
a considerable amount of time with the nursing officers during the weeks that
he was in Sumatra and praised their work.
