(22 Australian Jews were among the recipients of honours in this years Queens Birthday Honours List and included art collectors; a judge; academics; business and welfare activists and a rabbi. Australian Jewish community and leaders were shocked and saddened over the bloody attack in the night club in Orlando and send their condolences and expressions of sympathy to the survivors. A young Australian woman who survived the deadly attack the Sarona Market Centre in Tel-Aviv, recalled how she quickly recovered and donned her Magen-Dovid Adom ambulance uniform and rushed back to help 3 of the wounded Israelis.
