The
newly appointed Commander Australian Theatre, RADM Marc Bonser,
recently visited HMA Ships Melbourne and Arunta while they conduct
Multi-national Interception Operations in the Persian Gulf. The
visit to Melbourne included a tour of the ship and was followed
by morning tea in the Junior Sailors café. The morning tea
allowed the Admiral to speak to many of Melbourne’s personnel
about how the deployment was going and, in particular, what can
be improved upon for ships deployed to the Gulf in the future.
Melbourne is currently into her fourth patrol in support of Operation
Slipper and is due back to Australia later in the year.
