BobSad to report
WOMTP Max Berger passed away 29 Jan 2018 from
complications with cancer. Could you please distribute
Thanks
Dave”
I served with
Max, a
Direct Entry Tradesman, in a few places.
He rose to prominence as the Chief Tiffy of the Catapult System of the carrier
HMAS MELBOURNE.
After leaving the Navy he worked in the modification and maintenance sections of NQEA for the Fremantle Class Patrol Boats.
A first class tradesman and a thorough gentleman to boot. Another good man gone.
Yours aye
Bob Mummery
