Aaaah! JATFOR, been waiting for that. Scatter, Penetrate, Tiree let-downs, Bold Guard, Deep Furrow and lots more. On a more serious note, lots and lots of training with12 and 18-ships, building up to the full 36. All the while, still managing to do the normal AT tasking and also monthly 'Trainers' to South Africa, West Indies, Norway and Globals alternating Eastbound and Westbound. All crews leaving the OCU with a basic TS Cat and lots of variety. Them were the days! Mind you, being young, single and poor, meant that I was free to enjoy it all to the max.
