PRESS RELEASE FROM GO COMMANDO CHAIRMAN, SEAN O'BRIEN AND FELLOW TRUSTEES:
Friday 27th April 2012

Following on from our press release concerning the tragic and sad loss of Lily-Mae Jeffries, the trustees and team at Go Commando would like to send best wishes and continued thoughts to the Jeffries Family. 

Knowing them all as we do, and their strong family bond, we know that they are drawing comfort and strength from each other  to help them come to terms with events of recent weeks.  John, Charlene and the children  are taking a well deserved break and spending some quality time together as a family.  We wish them well and look forward to seeing them home soon.

Go Commando raises money to provide better services and support, to make life a little easier for families. More than that, Go Commando seeks to raise awareness within local communities of life behind the wire and bring families into the community.

“We – the wives, girlfriends, mothers and children – are asked: How do you cope? The answer is simple: only sometimes! Truly, we employ the same simple mechanisms as our great-grandmothers. In war, only technology seems to change. We rely on each other. I much appreciated the Families Day events at camp and the weekly coffee mornings are a great way to entertain small children and catch up on chat. The wristbands and posters around town remind us that the wider community supports their endeavours. I may hope for peace and my husband home for dinner, but the public markers remind me of my pride and honour in supporting their bravery and I purposefully soldier on.”
