Remembering this warrior, Sergeant Todd Matthew Langley, 2nd Commando Regiment, @australianarmy.
Sergeant Todd Langley was serving with the Special Operations Task Group when he was killed during intense fighting in a Taliban Safe Haven on 4th July 2011 in Afghanistan.
Aged 35 at the time of his death, Todd was from the Sydney-based 2nd Commando Regiment.
At 17 years old Todd enlisted in the Australian Army, joining the ranks of 1 RAR in 1994 before successfully completing the Commando Selection and Training course in 2004, and being posted to 4RAR Commando now 2nd Commando Regiment.
