Engineering Officer, Lieutenant Jessica Bartels, talks about experiences on HMAS Toowoomba following a successful six-month deployment on Operation MANITOU.

HMAS Toowoomba shared the tasking with the Combined Maritime Force, conducting counter-narcotics operations as part of Task Force 150 and maritime security operations in the Straits of Hormuz with the International Maritime Security Construct.

This is the 68th rotation of a Royal Australian Navy unit in the Middle East Region since 1990 and is Toowoomba’s sixth deployment to the region and second as part of Operation MANITOU.
