Our Pages
Allan Jones very sudden demise came as a big shock to us. He was a tireless campaigner on behalf of the 16th, and often represented the
minesweepers at official memorials. It was my pleasure to work with him on this website, and through many emails I came to respect him and
appriciate his sense of humour and his undoubted love and loyalty to the RAN and the 16th. Our sincere condolences to his family.
We miss you Allan. God speed.
