RSL Victoria announced Rebekah Herron as the RAAF Veteran Ambassador for the 2026 ANZAC Day March.

A military nurse inspired by her mother’s resilience, Rebekah served in the RAAF nursing service for 21 years across Australia and the Middle East, she provided critical care to injured soldiers and supported complex aero medical evacuations.
After leaving the Air Force in 2024, Rebekah has continued her journey through art, using her work to process her experiences and give voice to the stories of fellow veterans.

This ANZAC Day, Rebekah helped lead the march to the Shrine of Remembrance and recited the ANZAC Requiem.
