Description
The Prime Minister, John Howard, greets Scott and Jannine Gooderick, and their son Nathan, at a homecoming ceremony in Fremantle, WA. Scott and Nathan wear Collingwood football guernseys. They were at Victoria Quay to greet Jannine’s brother, Chief Petty Officer Trevor Syme, of HMAS ANZAC. HMAS ANZAC [III] left Australia for the Persian Gulf on 28 October 2002, under Operation Slipper, Australia’s contribution to the international fight against terrorism, to participate in the Multinational Interception Force enforcing UN sanctions against Iraq. The ship was then assigned to Operation Bastille, the build-up of Australian forces against Iraq, in January 2003, and then to Operation Falconer, Australia’s contribution to the war on Iraq, in March 2003. During this deployment, the ANZAC became the first Navy ship to fire her guns in combat since the Vietnam war.
