Publication:Sea Talk Winter 2006/Back to the fold for Reservist Maree

You might say Maree Wilson has returned to the Defence family... if she ever left it.

After an outstanding career in the PNF in which she saw service in the Middle East aboard HMAS Newcastle she discharged from the PN in 2002 to undergo a geospatial information systems course at the University of Southern Queensland.

Retaining her status as an active Reservist, she used her training to win a position in Defence's Imagery and Geospatial Organisation.

On April 19 she received the Afghanistan Campaign Medal from the Chief of Navy, VADM Russ Shalders, at NHQ SEQld.
