Not yet!  :-)

For the benefit of others, I'm doing an article on the 6 month Clearance
Diver Training programme run by the Royal Australian Navy and sitting in on
the Course.  The guys that I'm following haven't progressed to Mine Counter
Measures and EOD work yet.  This week it's O2 rebreathers.  (I've elected to
miss the physical training programme that begins at 06.30 each day and just
join them at breakfast!  :-)


But for anyone who's interested there's a piece on MCM diving, called 'Part
Of The Team', at:
