- Corporal Mathew Ricky Andrew Hopkins of the 7th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment, was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2009 at the tender age of 21.
Almost 15 years on, the Canadian Master Corporal who piped Corporal Hopkins’ casket to the plane for his final journey home, is still remembering the fallen Aussie and gaining strength from his memory.
During the Invictus Games Düsseldorf 2023 closing ceremony, Master Corporal James Gendron held a small grey plush koala called ‘Hoppy’, honouring CPL Hopkins.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
It's never easy seeing a fallen soldier's casket. it's even harder seeing your country's flag on the casket
