True Blue Conversations - Australian Army Photographer Veteran Rachel Ingram Part 1

On this week’s podcast, I speak with Army veteran Rachel Ingram.

Rache served for 19 years in the Australian Army deployed on multiple deployments, including East Timor, Afghanistan, Iraq, Solomon Islands, and multiple deployments in Australia. Rache was a photographer in the Army and covered many official events throughout her service. Rache was serving with 1RAR as part of the Mentoring and Reconstruction Task Force (MRTF – 2) in 2009 where Private Ben Ranaudo was killed by an anti-personnel explosive device and seriously wounded private Paul Warren on the 18th of July 2009. After 19 years in the Army, Rachel was medically discharged in 2014 and faced what all veterans face, what life is like after service, and finding purpose again. This is a raw and honest 2-part chat.
