Ex aussie army veteran here. This time frame is totally out of the ordinary. Normally these type of activities would be run for a few weeks to a month max. To have it run for 11 months is like WTF? SASR is based in Perth, Swanbourne, so the exercises over there make some sense as they are the chicken stranglers we would normally use for this sort of thing. The Commando regt is based in Sydney so that could be the reason for the Sydney exercises, that and it is a nice big fat target with lots of high profile sites.
Sorry about that folks,the SAS is the Special Air Service,the elite Special forces of the British,Australian and New Zealand Armies. Like the US Navy SEALS and US
Army Delta Force.
I was drinking some Fosters with an Aussie there and he showed me his prize car he had in his garage. He showed me his guns he had and then pulled a pogo stick out. He said to me -- Now, I'll show you Yanks how we go 'roo hunting.

I really need to know more about this expression. It sounds like a military-oriented nickname that belongs with "snake-eater," "turd-chaser," and etc.
The term"Chicken stranglers" comes from the survival training the SAS specialise in. They train in catching,killing and preparing anything edible.
Hence,catch your chicken and strangle it!
And for those of us not military, what is SAS?

Well I'd assume the British Special Air Service
