Major General Ro Jone Kalouniwai, the Commander of the Republic of Fiji Military Forces (RFMF), expressed his deep appreciation for the wives and mothers of the Territorial Force (TF) Brigade during the inaugural TF Wives and Mothers Tournament held at Nasau Park in Levuka. He acknowledged the essential role these women play in bolstering the morale and resilience of military families through their love and sacrifices.
The event marks a significant step in recognizing the often overlooked contributions of military families, particularly the women who provide unwavering support to the RFMF. Major General Kalouniwai emphasized the importance of this tournament in fostering unity, wellness, and camaraderie among the families of service members.
“The event marks a significant milestone in recognising the often-unseen contributions of military families, especially the women who form the backbone of support for the RFMF,” stated Maj-Gen Kalouniwai, highlighting the vital connection between service members and their families.
This tournament is a refreshing initiative that encourages a sense of community and reinforces the family’s role in the lives of military personnel. It serves not only as a celebration of the hard work of these women but also promotes well-being and togetherness, which are crucial for families often facing the unique challenges associated with military life.
The event echoes sentiments expressed in previous recognitions of the critical roles played by military families, reminiscent of Major General Kalouniwai’s emphasis on teamwork and dedication noted in his recent accolades, such as receiving the French Order of Merit. This collective acknowledgment speaks volumes about the support structures surrounding military operations, promising a hopeful future for family involvement in Fiji’s military community.
