Garry E. Hall as commander of Combined Task Force (CTF) 158 during a ceremony at Naval Support Activity Bahrain Sept. 27. Command of CTF 158 typically rotates among coalition partners Australia, United Kingdom and the United States. CTF 158 is comprised of coalition ships and its primary mission in the Persian Gulf is Maritime Security Operations (MSO) in and around both the Al Basrah and Khawr Al Amaya Oil Terminals (ABOT and KAAOT, respectively), in support of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1723. This resolution charges the multinational force with the responsibility and authority to maintain security and stability in Iraqi territorial waters and also supports the Iraqi government's request for security support. Additionally, under the training and leadership of CTF 158, Iraqi marines aboard ABOT and KAAOT train with the coalition in order to eventually assume responsibility for security. “I am honored to have been in command of this task force,” said Hall. “The coalition forces have done an excellent job of providing security to the oil platforms and training the Iraqi forces.” “I am very proud of the coalition forces and my staff in supporting the CTF 158 mission,” said Capt.

FOREWORD cience and technology have many roles in supporting defence capability but none is more important than researching novel S ideas and initiating projects that meet critical national security requirements. The Nulka active missile decoy program is a project that typifies this role. Nulka did not have an easy birth. From the initial concept developed by Australia’s Defence Science and Technology Organisation in the early 1970s, Nulka faced many hurdles — technical, managerial and political — before it became the state-of-the-art ship protection system that we see deployed on more than 150 Australian, United States and Canadian warships today.
