To mark his retirement, The Ven Rob Sutherland CSC was presented with an Aussie Hero Quilt by chaplains Cindy Waugh and Kerrie Frizzel at Gallipoli Barracks on 10 September 2024 — the quilt features the Royal Australian Army Chaplains' Department Badge, the Australian Army Badge and the Royal Australian Regiment Badge (because Rob was in The Royal Australian Infantry Corps for 20 years). In the background is an image of Bishop Frank Hulme-Moir (1910-1979), who was Chaplain-General of the Australian Army when Rob was at high school and going to church in Sydney
