Condolences to two Australian soldiers killed in North Qld

August 30, 2021

The following comments are attributable to Bob Katter MP, following the death of two soldiers in an army vehicle rollover at Dotswood in the Kennedy Electorate[1]:

“Soldiering at home or overseas is extremely dangerous.

These two soldiers risked their lives for our country.

I don’t think that is often acknowledged as it should be.

You can say it’s a car accident but it’s an essential part of being a soldier.

There are always great dangers.

My deepest sympathies and prayers are with their families.”
