I currently have 4 Mid under my command who are undergoing degrees at civvilian universities prior to starting Dartmouth when they graduate.
During the summer recess they are required to get themselves away on attachments to Naval units or undergo adventure training.
Some of my Chaps are keen as mustard to get themselves away at sea with one of our surface fleet ships, however I am told that this is easier said than done.
I have exercised a bit of expectation management with these fellows and informed them it may not be likely (op commitments etc etc).
However, if anybody can help out or point me in the right direction to getting these chaps away that would be most helpful.
Having spent a week myself as a 'searider' on an Aussie Frigate, I know they will benifit greatly from this.
Once again any help would be much appreciated and prob make these lads summer.
