What are they up to now?
Jordan Green (Class of 2014)
38
Within months of his final day at CBC, Jordan Green commenced officer training at The Royal Military College in Duntroon. Eighteen gruelling months later, the man who walked into Duntroon at 17 was a very different man to the Lieutenant who marched out at 19 years of age, trained to be a soldier, officer and leader. The Australian Defence Force values of service, courage, respect, integrity and excellence had become his moral code to live by.
Jordan was then posted to the 51st Battalion as an Operations Officer and subsequently to the 7th Battalion as the second in command. He specialised as a Reconnaissance and Surveillance Officer, deploying on two separate operations, and completing a Bachelor of Business during this time. He led the Anzac colour party at the 100th anniversary for the battle of Villers-Bretonnoux in France and was promoted to the rank of Captain. Jordan currently leads the Recruitment Career Promotions team for WA, which has taken him all over the state.
Jordan was assigned as Platoon Commander of the Royal Australian Infantry Corp 2nd Battalion, leading 26 soldiers. They travelled to New Caledonia to train with international militaries, flying to Asia to conduct jungle and counter-terrorism training, and conducting beach insertion tasks in Queensland, amongst other adventures.
Jordan’s passion to serve his country keeps him motivated, and he says his time at CBC helped him with the skills he needed to become the man that he is today. Jordan said: “I owe it to the staff and mates who supported me along this journey; I owe you all my gratitude. You are the reason I serve.”
