Av-Comm Observer: December 2024ย 


8th Signal Regiment Sponsorship


Av-Comm is the proud major sponsor of the Australian Defence Force’s 8th Signal Regiment in the Cadaceus Cup for the second year in a row!

The Cadecues Cup is run during Royal Australian Corps of Signals (RASIGS) Corps Week. It is essentially a sports carnival run over several days, with rugby, tug-of-war, volleyball, etc, and the main event is the relay run. We sponsor 8 Sig Regt which is a reserve unit, and it is the only national Signals Regiment.ย  8 Sig responsibilities are primarily for domestic operations and have worked to support the nation during times like crisis (floods and fire) and in border security.
