Honoring Heroes: Celebrating America’s 250 with Our First Responder Partners
Two nations, one shared mission. In the spirit of America’s 250th birthday, U.S. Consul General Jeremy Cornforth honored the incredible first responders who keep us safe across the Pacific. He welcomed representatives from Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC), the Australian Federal Police, New South Wales Police Force, Queensland Police, Fire and Rescue New South Wales, and members of the Diplomatic Law Enforcement Attaché Community in Sydney. We recognize the vital partnership between U.S. and Australian first responders — supporting Americans here in Australia and standing shoulder-to-shoulder with us overseas in service of our shared security interests. From the streets of Sydney to communities across the United States, this is what partnership looks like — first responders building trust, one mission, one community at a time. 🇺🇸🇦🇺
