Divers from the Squadron honing their skills on Ex SCARAB DIVE in Weymouth. They dived using Open Space Diving Systems (OSDS) and Self Contained Air Diving Equipment (SCADE); testing new communication and 3-D rendering systems. Pity the weather was so testing 😎🌞 ☘️ 🤿

A great effort from 3 CER and our PNGDF partners, constructing a trench system to protect us from ‘enemy’ artillery and other attacks. The trench is fully covered with a low signature, two gun pits, and a raised sump for sleeping, making it liveable for extended periods.
