Medical Officer said that Gibb’s motivation was only fair. He could have got a farmer exemption but preferred to enlist. His temperament was reserved and he was fairly mature and well disciplined. Appeared to be emotionally sound and even a little
casual, but should be able to show up well if sufficiently motivated. Has good durance and stamina.
