Description
Unidentified crew members of HMAS Kanimbla drop anchor in the Khawr Abd Allah waterway. During Operation Falconer, HMAS Kanimbla supplied command and control support to the Coalition boarding parties clearing the KAA waterway. HMAS Kanimbla also supported Australian Clearance Diving Team 3 (AUSCDT3) by providing logistics support and work platform facilities. HMAS Kanimbla operated in the Middle East as part of the Australian Defence Force's commitment to the coalition forces assembled to enforce Iraq's compliance with its international obligations to disarm.
