Non Manibus Solem sed Corde
Daddy! What did you do in the navy?
I joined the Navy as an artificer at HMS Fisgard on September 3rd, 1982 for a four-year apprenticeship in Electronics and Communications Engineering.
Sadly, HMS Fisgard is no longer and, in this plug-and-play world, the navy no longer relies on trained artificers (engineers) but the memory of our time on and under the waves will sustain for a little longer.
