Description
Able Seaman (AB) Glen 'Nobby' Clark takes part in the live round firearms practice on board HMAS Kanimbla. He is preparing to fire a 50 calibre Browning machine gun. During Operation Falconer, HMAS Kanimbla supplied command and control support to the coalition boarding parties clearing the Khawr Abd Allah (KAA) waterway, and logistics support and work platform facilities to Australian Clearance Diving Team 3 (AUSCDT3). HMAS Kanimbla operated in the Middle East as part of the Australian commitment to the Coalition forces assembled to disarm Iraq.
