Welcome to the 11th Brigade Website
The 11th Brigade is the Army Reserve Brigade of Queensland. It comprises three Infantry Battalions of the Royal Queensland Regiment (RQR); the Queensland University Regiment (QUR) training battalion; a Combat Service Support Battalion (CSSB - logistics), a Signals Squadron and a Combat Engineer Squadron. This map shows the units and depots throughout Queensland from Stanthorpe to Cairns and as far West as Mt Isa. Information regarding individual units can be accessed via the unit page links on this homepage. The intent of this website is to promote public awareness, to encourage recruitment enquiries and to keep serving soldiers and their families informed on all matters that affect them. This website is also accessible from within the Defence Restricted Network and is reviewed constantly.
We try hard to keep this up to date and relevant. If you think there is something that we should add please email Webmanager

FOGS Indigenous Employment and Careers Expo

Staff from the 11 Brigade Recruiting Cell recently attended the "Former Origin Greats" (FOGS) Indigenous Employment and Careers Expo at Rockhampton. The expo was a great opportunity for young Indigenous Australians to connect with employers and training providers and start thinking about their careers. Employers and training providers from around the region took the time to promote their skills/trades/services during the course of the day. WO1 Andy Howard, WO2 Chris Doyle and SGT Mitch Nielson promoted entry into the Army Reserve whilst staff from Defence Force Recruiting promoted entry into the full time Defence Force. Organisers were very pleased with the result with approx 3000 students attending. More photos.....
