The families of the three Defence Members that were killed in Afghanistan on 21 June 2010, with the helicopter cowling that was presented to the Australian War Memorial on November 11.  Mid Caption: During a small ceremony on Remembrance Day, the Chief of Joint Operations, Lieutenant General Ash Power, presented the Australian War Memorial with an engine cowling from a coalition helicopter that crashed in Southern Afghanistan on 21 June 2010.  Quick-thinking military personnel had used the engine cowling as an improvised stretcher to extract the wounded from the crash site. Despite aero-medical evacuation and the heroic efforts by all involved in the incident, three Australian Commandos, Private Benjamin Chuck, Private Timothy Aplin and Private Scott Palmer from the Special Operations Task Group were killed as a result of the crash, and eight others were wounded.
