relief to be given notice of his draft. The third reason for greater contentment is that all ratings who have completed three years’ service are given. after a normal tour of 27 months’ sea service. a minimum time ashore between sea drafts (and the more senior you are. the longer the shore draft is) although in two categories of extreme shortage this cannot yet be quite as long as for other similar rates. What have been my principal problems over the past two years? Firstly. to meet the increasing ressure for stream or type dra ing. This is nothing new and Drafty has always tried to make maximum use of a training and ratings past experience. But our ships are ——

special training to fit them to maintain or operate some par-

It is not fair to dip too far down the sea roster to find the right man, although we do look at the whole of the top three months in making our selections. At the same time we must look at your preferences and try to meet them or at least give everyone a fair share of preference and non-preference drafts. That is why although the computer now provides all the information froth which we draft. it will never select your next draft like a

most of the people

On the Drafting Division floor of H.M.S. Centurion hang the name boards of the Drafting Commanders who functioned in the individual Naval Barracks before drafting was centralised in 1957 The old Portsmouth Port Division board has at the bottom the motto "Much courted Little loved." Dratty is certainly still much courted. but I like to think he is now understood, it not loved. at least by most of the people most of the time. I believe there are three main reasons for reater contentment with naval rafting Firstly. it is now more than seven years since the last rnapr change in the Drafting Regulations and the trickle draft of 27 months at sea is now well established and understood. Secondly. the pier head jump has been largely abolished. All sea drafts are issued five months ahead and three months‘ notice is given of shore drafts except within the same

there will always be needed the judgment of experienced DraftOfficers— if not of Solomon. l are is always the problem of spreading the jam evenly in the shortage categories and making best use of any surplus elsewhere. The first priority is the manning of the Fleet and billets are only left untitled or diluted if it is necessary to preserve minimum time ashore. Even then there are not always enough experienced ratings to fill all the important shore billets and again it is a matter of careful iudgment which can be left

Swift action in the steam-lllled boiler room of ll..\l.S. l.ot-vestoft has earned commcndations for .\lE.\l.\'tP)l Alfred Martin and .l’0.\lE.\l Edward Carr from the (‘ommander-in-Chlcl Fleet. Admiral Sir Henry Leach. The Lowestolt was alongside at Portsmouth. at night. when a drain cock. was inadvertently opened. filling the boiler room with superheated steam. HI-I.\l.\' .\Iartin crawled flat on the plates with P().\lE!\l Carr holding his legs and ready to pull him back if he lost consciousness in the intense heat and closed the drain cock with a makeshift lever. Ml-I.\l)\' Martin. who is now serving in the assault ship ll..\l.S. Intrepid. received his commendation from Rear-Admiral W. J. Graham. Flag Officer Portsmouth. The commendation stated that by his presence of mind. ingenuity and nerve in a difficult and dangerous situation. and regardless of personal safety. .\lr.-chanician Martin minimized damage to vital equipment. l’().\lE.\l Carr received his commendation from the commanding officer.

Mr. Ft. H. Vardon (Manager. Naval Canteen Service) said that the multiples had engaged in a huge advertising battle "in an eflon to attract from each other customers who. because of other demands. had less to spend on their weekly shopping." Despite the economic gloom. Mr Vardon told the meeting which was chaired by viceAdmiral A D. Cassidi. Flag Officer Naval Air Command that the Service had increased its turnover’ Home Shore trading turnover increased by 13.7 per cent. from £t0.644.000 to £t2,105.000. white the turnover in HM ships rose by 1.7 per cent. from £5,103,000 to 25.194000. From revenue earned by Home Shore trading £38-1.000 was distributed during the year in the form of rebate. discounts. and dividend. This was £68,000 more than in the previous year. Dartty due to the fact that the rate of rebate was increased from three to four per cent. in October 1976.

comparison with that in Home Shore establishments. he anticipated a rise in the coming year. "With both H.M.S. Hermes and H M.S. Art-i Royal at sea for much of the year and a sixth Group Development. trading in H.M. ships is running well above last year's level." Although Home Shore sales were unlikely to be much above the 1977 level, partly as a result of recent industrial disputes. Mr. Vardon hoped that the extra trading at sea would help to produce an overall increase in sales. The rebate was increased from tour per cent. to the traditional five per cent. from November 1977 and £1 million had been "tucked away" to ensure that the five per cent. rate could be maintained for at least 12 months. "This means that. in taking their own wise look ahead. those responsible for planning expenditura from ship and shore establishment welfare lunds will be able to see. and therefore look further ahead. than they would otherwise have been able." said Mr. Vardon.

The advantages of the new arrangements appear overwhelming and undoubtedly are once your name is on the register. Whercin lies the rub. For one reason or :inother. the names of countless wives will not be appetiring on this year‘s lists, Some made it clear they did not receive the necessary forms [despite the proper procedure being followed and heroic efforts by local electoral registrtition officers). Some may have been apathetic. But there were others who objected strongly on principle to the requirement for attc.s‘tation. ()ne Service wife told her .\f.l’. she felt she was now regarded as "part of her husband's goods and chattels for hint to decide if l should cast a sole or not." By the very nature of the new arrangerneiits. the beneficial effect should grow. l\leanwhilc. niany still feel that an itnproied itietliod of distributing the forms would help and hope that a way round attestation cart be found.

How

new

scheme could affect

CPO

Here's how the new commutation arrangements could affect one CPO: He goes to pension at age 40 after 22 years service. providing him a pension (under 1977 Code) of £1,452 a year. and a terminal grant of £4,356.

scheme he will now be able to raise an additional tax-tree sum of £2,283 (compared with a normal maximum of 21.000 under the present scheme). This reduces his pension to £1,148 a year. but at age 55 his pension is restored to 21,452: plus all pension increases Under the Resettlement Commutation awarded since his retirement.

Externa factors which are variable by the simulator include cloud base and intensity, air temperature, sea state, wind speed and direction, temperature lapse rate, and height of land above sea level. For the aircrewmon and observer all functions are simulated, including submarines, ships and "non-subs" on the sonar set, and there is a realistic radar presentation for the observer, including the coastline, ships, and other aircraft.

and Commonwealth training. Many other nations have urchased varyin versions of the Westland King for eit r antisubmarine or search and rescue duties, and those trained at Culdrose to date have come from Norwa Australia, Germany, Egypt, Pakistan, Be ium, and Denmark. Many of these customers realize the great value of continuation training and their crews return regularly, for perhaps one week in eve six ,

their flying prac ures and handling of aircraft malfunctions. To cope with the demand the simulator stafi has been increased over the years to the present strength of live pilots, two observers, and one aircrewman. Every new Mark of Sea King produced is slightly different from the last, with different fuel and electrical systems, with varying instrumentation, aids and limitations. This poses problems for the staff, of course, and each of the pilots has now taken on the task of being the "expert“ for a particular type of Lieut. John Wingate aircraft, as follows (officer-in-charge), R.N. Sea Kings Mkl and Mk2; Lieut. Chris Pittaway, No and_ Germany; Lieut. Paul Lea, Denmark; ut. Keith Thompson, Belgium and Royal Air Force; Sub-Lieut. Jim Pollard, Pakistan. Simulator training offers many advantages over actual flying training, among them being cast and safety. According to Lieut. Wingate, the greatest advantage is in confidence buildof the simulator being a ing. "The old ‘torture chamber’ r aircrew are over," he says. "The object of the simulator staff is to make our aircrews rat to visit the simulator, in order to build up their confidence in themselves and their ability to deal in a totally logical and professional manner with any set of circumstances or situation which they may come upon when fiying operationally."
