By decree of the President of the French Republic, Monsieur Nicolas Sarkozy, on 3 December 2008, Ross Steele was promoted from Chevalier to Officier in the National Order of the Légion d’Honneur. The investiture conducted by the French Ambassador, Monsieur Michel Filhol, took place at a Reception at the Ambassador's Residence in Canberra on 12 March 2009.
