    "Once feted as a paragon of the Anzac legend, Ben Roberts-Smith has now become the face of accusations Australian soldiers committed war crimes.


    In 2020, a landmark investigation known as the Brereton Report found "credible evidence" that elite soldiers unlawfully killed 39 people in Afghanistan.


    It kept most details a secret but said the allegations included what was "possibly the most disgraceful episode in Australia's military history" - a redacted event which occurred in 2012.


    The four-year-long inquiry found a "warrior culture" within Australia's special forces, and recommended that 19 current or former soldiers should be investigated over alleged killings of prisoners and civilians from 2009-13.


    Earlier this year former SAS soldier Oliver Schulz became the first person to be charged with the war crime of murder."

    Would seem That BRS is one of those implicated in the Brereton report

    Would go without saying that in the SAS would have a saying "What happens on Tour, Stays on the Tour" and of course you don't rat out your colleages
