Navy Today - Issue 256, July 2021
Going Under! Our divers are the poster team for our July edition of Navy Today, as they refine their techniques with stealthy rebreather equipment in a secluded bay in the far North. We meet HMNZS Manawanui’s new Commanding Officer, and find out what it takes to become qualified as a ship’s diver. A Devonport local writes an article about the excitement of watching a Navy graduation through the fence, and we profile some of our newest qualified officers. Navy historian Gerry Wright talks about Navy life in the fifties, as we progress towards our 80th anniversary this year.
