This sight may be familiar to some. Annual dingy drill was very pleasant in FEAF due to the temperature of the air and water. Not quite the same at Mount Batten in the winter. On 48 we would be taken out to the exercise area on the ASR the MS26 dumped in ,upside down as usual, and in we would go. When the drills were finished we would be winched out by the Whirlwind (pics to follow) and dumped back on deck. Then to cleanse our mouths of the salt water we used that well known mouthwash ice cold Tiger as we motored back home.
Happy days.
