    Interview Navy Engineers

    Russoft, If you still need to do this, here is what you can do. Pick a ship and find its brow phone number (google works well). Call the brow and ask to speak with the Marine System Engineer or the Combat System Engineer. Introduce yourself and tell him/her why you called. If they are...

    Want to see who's at sea in your area? (Civie ships)

    True, but at least, it's not free intel. They don't have cargo info of what's coming so that they can hone in on a specific ship. Having been there last year, the intel we got was that they are opportunists. They hit what they can and hopefully, the cargo may be valuable enough that the ship...

    Are bosun's boring?

    Ask a Bosn how he likes his job when he's a spare during the Mids. Ask the same Bosn how he likes his job while he is watching a floating target sinking after he just shot 200 .50 cal tracer rounds at a it off the quarterdeck at dusk. It's all subjective based on your perspective. Boredom...

    Anyone know of a NCIOP website?

    HMCS Ville de Québec Tour and Day Sail

    VDQ left Wednesday afternoon for her little jaunt on the Great Lakes. For all of those who are sailing, be sure you befriend the Cooks (for the lower-deckers) and the Stewarts (for the officers). THey will make your trip so much more enjoyable. If anyone is interested, don't be afraid to ask...

    Beachmasters in the CF

    I have no access to the DIN so I can't see FSTO's link but I know that there were a few members of the JTF and CSOR and a few sailors (who were part of the MAU I believe) went down to the States for a few training with the Seals. For what I heard from one of the sailors that participated in a...

    Hull Tech

    GazHead, Ex-Dragoon is absolutely right. The HT section needs to fill a spot on the NBP. It also is preferable to have an HT on the dive team to perform underwater surveys, planned and corrective maintenance. BUT, you supervisor will only let you do one or the other, not both. And Varps, if...
