Navy success story

You could well describe LCDR Alan Moore as a Royal Australian Navy “success”.

In the service for 18 years he joined as a junior sailor, but wanted to fly. So, after two and a half years as a sailor he was commissioned, beginning flight training on Bell 206 Jet Rangers.

He moved up through the ranks and aircraft sizes, finally going on to Sea Kings and joining No 817 Squadron where he is now the squadron’s Training Officer.

He was recently awarded a Maritime Commander’s Commendation during a Clear Lower Deck in Hangar A at HMAS Albatross on May 6. In our photo by LSPH Brad Fullerton, LCDR Moore receives his commendation from MCAUST RADM Raydon Gates.
