Nominations
are sought for the 2003 Prince of Wales Awards from eligible ADF
Reservists.
The
Award is open to Air Force Reservists between the ranks of sergeant
and squadron leader.
The
Prince of Wales Award Scheme aims to increase Reservists
occupational knowledge, experience and skills through work experience
with foreign military and civilian organisations complementary
with their Australian employment. Travel is to Canada, the United
Kingdom or the United States, with a two-week military attachment
followed by a two-week civilian attachment.
Unlike
previous years, nominations will only include a civilian project
proposal, with statements of support from employers and unit commanders,
that are assessed at state then national level.
Nomination
forms should be submitted to the Defence Reserves Support Committee
(DRSC) by June 30. Further information is available from the DRSC
on 1800 803 485 and at www.defence.gov.au/drsc,
the ADF Reserves web site.
