Special guest at Narrabri Anzac Day services was Chief Petty Officer Mark Gibbs. CPO Gibbs has now attended 40 Anzac commemorations. Last year he was in New Zealand’s South Island and participated in an Anzac ceremony there and has taken part in services on land in other countries and at sea aboard HMAS Choules. That was a dawn service for the crew in the middle of the ocean, including a ‘gunfire breakfast’, which apparently in Navy tradition means a tot of rum is available along with bacon and eggs and other breakfast fare.
