The Officers’ Mess at Base Camp Ayanganna hosted a distinguished Service Dinner last evening, with former Chief of Staff of the Guyana Defence Force (GDF), Brigadier Godfrey Bess, as the Guest of Honour.

Brigadier Bess, a graduate of the Standard Officer Course 21, was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in 1990. A GDF release said that his dedication to service culminated in his tenure as Chief of Staff, a position he held from July 2020 to April 2023.

Upon his arrival, Brigadier Bess was received by Chief of Defence Staff, Brigadier Omar Khan.

This Service Dinner stands as a testament to the GDF’s commitment to honouring its members’ dedication and sacrifice, the release added.
