Subject: VALE - CPOMTP5SM COLIN "CHOOK" FOWLER R42024 - MOBI JUL 56

Sad news for our MOBI cohort. Well liked and well respected, “Chookie” Fowler was a member of the original class of MOBIs, July 1956.
I remember him from my early NIRIMBA days and, over the past couple of years, we have been fortunate to have been in email contact with one another.

RIP CHOOKIE

Bob,

The attached screenshot is of a post by Peter Fowler tonight on Facebook, regarding the passing of his father Colin, a member of the first intake of MOBIs.

:salute1: Image

Peter followed Colin into Nirimba and submarines :diver: and was also a submarine Chief Tiff.


Regards

Tony Vine



=; Whilst it's always sad to announce the passing of a fellow M0BI, it's particularly painful when it's one of our 1st MOBI Intake Pioneers... :-k

:notworthy: Rest on your oars 'Chookie' your voyage is done... :happy: VALE and may you Rest In Peace, Brother... [-o<

Always sad to loose one of our early MOBI's. I never had the pleasure of serving with Colin, but I would like to extend my condolence to his family and friends.

Vale Colin :salute1:

Served with Chook on Morseby when he was Chief Tiff. Nice guy, well thought of and respected.
Vale Col, RIP! Condolences to his family and fair wind and following seas.
