Navy Today - Issue 288, June 2024
In this edition AHSO Mya Wells describes the vigorous duties as a member of the Deployable Boarding Team. Our trainee officers undertake weeks at sea around New Zealand, seeking their Officer of the Watch qualification, and we showcase the impressive surveillance capabilities of 'Bellona', our Bluebottle uncrewed surface vessel. We meet a sailor on her way to officer rank and a psychology profession, and explore the significance of the Samoan tatau (tattoo) for one of our sailors.
