CO recognises Command service

LCDR Chris Smith presents LSRO Andrew Callander with his CO’s commendation.

At a recent awards ceremony, LSRO Andrew Callander, LSCIS Michael Fraser and ABMTE Lloyd Gook all received CO’s commendations, from HMAS Gladstone’s departing CO, LCDR Peter Ashen.

The commendations were in recognition of the excellent support and service they all provided to command throughout LCDR Ashen’s tenure as CO.

LCDR Chris Smith, who assumed command during Gladstone’s recent patrol, presented the commendations to the sailors on behalf of LCDR Ashen.
