Description
Informal portrait of Jason Dolan, RAN. A member of the HMAS Kanimbla Gold Team boarding party, Dolan is standing in the Sea King helicopter hangar on board HMAS Kanimbla while on operations in the Khawr Abd Allah (KAA) waterway. During Operation Falconer, HMAS Kanimbla supplied command and control support to the coalition boarding parties clearing the KAA waterway. HMAS Kanimbla also provided support to the Australian Clearance Diving Team 3 (AUSCDT3) through the provision of 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.
