BZ to the three new Midshipmen from HMS President, who passed out of BRNC earlier this month! Having joined together as Officer Cadets, they progressed through militarisation and marinisation, became qualified with the SA80 rifle and strenuously prepared themselves, mentally and physically, to get through the final two weeks training. If you would like to find out how this could be you, come along to one of our information evenings, pinned at the top of the page!

Earlier in February members of the Ships Company attended HMS Raleigh for their NMT103A course. All passed, with special mention for one of our ABs on achieving Marksman in very difficult conditions. BZ to all!
Several members of the Ships Company also attended the ACMT weekend, again a successful evolution especially given the poor weather on the Saturday.
