The
Force Extraction Team (FET) in Honiara has been busily loading
up surplus Defence equipment for the drawdown of the military
component of RAMSI following the restoration of law and order.
Under the supervision of LCDR Jeffery Williams, the FET at the
Honiara Loading Docks began transferring containers to HMAS Brunei.
LCDR Williams was the original CO of the ship during its first
deployment to Operation Anode last year.
“The amphibious warfare ship is capable of beaching and transferring
stores and equipment across the shore,” LCDR Williams said.
Brunei’s first port of call was her homeport of Cairns before
moving on to Townsville to deliver vehicles and stores and take
part in a welcome home parade.
