Tony Vine advises: With great sadness I advise the passing of yet another MOBI, LCDR Chris Luscombe RAN(Rtd). Chris joined as a JR, before becoming a member of the 31st intake of Naval Apprentices at NIRIMBA in July 1971, (2nd last intake of MOBIs). Chris was a renowned AFL player representing NIRIMBA and Navy as well as playing club football in Sydney. He was commissioned in 1986, and after his SD Course he completed an Engineering Degree at Chisholm College in Melbourne. He served as the cargo officer on HMAS SUCCESS during the first Gulf War. He was diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer a couple of months ago, and he passed away early in the morning of Thursday 4 December. He is survived by his wife Margie and their children. I am sorry to be the bearer of such sad news. Regards Tony Vine |
