Essay by Luke Foster
“The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.”
Thomas Paine
I like this quote and it reflects my impression of the Australian SAS but I also realise that it’s also strong women SAS soldiers who have equal bravery.
I also realise they are super fit and highly skilled and you also have to have a high IQ to become one.
I’m kind of creative but not as intelligent and organised as them.
When doing protection for aid-work I also think that they would also have to have profound compassion.
“Our human compassion binds us the one to the other – not in pity or patronizingly, but as human beings who have learnt how to turn our common suffering into hope for the future.”
Nelson Mandela
I like the following quote about the importance of security and practical skills for aid work.
“Humanitarians are not armed — their security depends on prevention, deterrence and acceptance. In addition to security, ensuring safety must cover common activities such as construction, transport and health/hygiene precautions.”
In conclusion when I think of the Australian SAS, I feel safe as they are kind hearted geniuses.
“Women have been able to serve with the SAS after transferring from covert surveillance units – such as the Special Reconnaissance Regiment – since 2018.”
