Private Steven Andrew HALL, Qld
For distinguished performance of duties in warlike operations as a Rifleman, 12 Platoon, Security Task Group, 2nd Reconstruction Task Force during Operation SLIPPER.
While Lead Scout on patrol in Afghanistan on 10 August 2007, Private Hall and his Section were engaged by enemy fighters with heavy small arms and rocket propelled grenade fire. With total disregard for his own safety, and while acting from an unprotected position, Private Hall instinctively returned accurate covering fire to allow the remainder of his Section to break contact with the enemy. His actions show his superior devotion to duty and embody the qualities of courage, initiative and teamwork which are so important to success in battle.
