mings, FLINDERS' team is fast buildingthe reputation as a force to be reckonedwith.

Highlight of FLINDERS' recent prog­ram was the first meeting with HMASMORESBY in Cairns.

With the Iwo ships in company the entryinto Cairns' harbour marked the stan ofNavy Week festivities.

A successful one-day hydrographic sym­posium gave hydrographers and surveyrecorders a chance to discuss many of thelatest developments in their fields,together with comprehensive details offuture developments within the branch.

The time togelher also provided ampleopportunity for a crab catching competi­tion, golf and a mini Olympics afternoon.

The major event on the Olympic prog­ram was the dummy spitting competitionbetween the DireClor of the HydrographicOffice, Captain John Leech. and the Com­manding Officers of MORESBY, Com­mander Bob Willis, and FLINDERS,Lieutenant Commander John Paterson.

A sterling performance by LCDRPaterson saw FLINDERS take the hon­ours with an elegant five metre projeClion,setting a new record.

With a successful sea check behind herand some fine performances on the sport­ing field FLINDERS and her team wereeager to gel back to the survey grounds inanticipation of a busy year ahead.

After five months alongside in refit the crew of HMAS FLINDERS is backat sea resuming the relendess task of surveying previously uncharted reefwaters in Australia's north.

Before proceeding to the surveygrounds FLINDERS was required to com­plete two weeks of harbour and sea accep­tance trials for the recently filted HYD­LAPS system.

Excepting a few minor machinery dif­ficulties sea acceptance trials were success­fully completed in preparation for the seachcck assessment by COMAUSPABFORstaff and NOIC CAIRNS.

During the preparation week FLIN­DERS was tasked with a wide range ofvarying evolutions and scenarios whichsaw the ship perform mOSl aspeCls of heroperational capabilities. Many rarely usedskills such as tactical manoeuvring andweighing by deck tackle were put to thetesl.

Several real emergencies throughoutthe week kept all personnel busy, theirhard work and professional anitude earn­ing them a "good" assessment by NOICCAIRNS and his staff.

With 40% of the crew new arrivals thesefew weeks of intensive training provedinvaluable experience. at the same timebrushing away a few dockyard cobwebsbefore sailing to Torres Strait.

The weeks prior to the passage northwere not all hard work.

With a busy program of competitivespon FLINDERS' ship's company wasable to demonstrate its finesse on both themud flats and the Rugby field with con­vincing wins in the annual R.G. Fry Cupobstacle race and the second round inter-

At the recent annual meeting of The United SeniceInstitution of New South Wales Major Genel'lll J.R.Broadbent, CBE DSO ED, WliS elected presidenl ofthe USI.

He replaced Captain L.M. Hinchliffe, DSC RAN(rtd), who stood down after 21 years in that office.

Captain Hinchliffe was president during a period ofgreal change for the USI.

In this period the institution has developed in aresponsible role by desseminating information notably10 serving members of the forces, on a wide range oftopics relalive to defence. strategy and related maners.

Speakers at institute seminars are from the civiliancommunity and the international scene.

CERBERUS firefighters. under CPO Peter Holstein.were called on to quell the (simulated) blazing wreck of thehelo ~ an ingenious arrangement devised with fire pans,smoke generators and a helo shell.

Selling up and manning the display was a complex taskinvolving all sections of the Victoria Area Command andclose co-opcration with the other services and DPR stafffrom Canberra.

For Command Operations Officer LCDR Adrian Kopsas Naval Liaison Officer and LeDR Ken Mathews asHMAS CERBERUS Liaison Officer, ably supported byPOUWSM Shane Richards, the project meant almost dayand night involvement.

Manning the display for the 13 hours each day it wasopen to the public required 40 personnel drawn fromHMAS CERBERUS and HMAS LONSDALE. All CER­BERUS schools contributed a quota and Naval Policefrom HMAS LONSDALE worked long hours assistingwith overall security.

The demand for motor transport throughout the showwas heavy but the transport section at CERBERUS, underthe guidance of Chief Wran MTD Margaret Wildman, wasequal to the task.

After its successful launch in Melbourne, the conceptwill appear next at the Canberra and Sydney Royal Eastersho~"$ in 1990.

The long-term plan is for the ADF to be involved in eachof the capital city shows over a three-year cycle.

Defence's involvement at this year's Royal Mel­bourne show «nected the Australian DefenceForce's new public relations strategy aimed at rais­ing public awareness and understanding of the threeservices.

Centrepiece of the ADF's involvement was a display ofmore than $20 million wonh of equipment in a 2500 squaremetre area. Enthusiastically received by lhe public, it wonthe blue ribbon for the show's Best Community Organisa­tion/Social Service Display.

The Navy section, with a background of murals andvideo film of fighting ships and naval action, featured aStandard missile, a working 4&60 AN4 mounting, a light­weight torpedo, a Jindivik pilotless target aircraft, a radio'control surface target, noating and ground mines, and div­ing, firefighting. damage control and survival equipment.Also included were models of a DDG, FFG, Type 471 sub­marine, Meko 200 frigate and Seahawk helicopter.

Backdrops of large colour photographs with bold textdepicted other aspects of Navy life.

More than 300,000 people are estimated to have visitedthe display during the 10 days of the show.

The adjacent careers infonnation centre near the exithandled a steady flow of inquiries.

HMAS CERBERUS mounted a royal guard, supportedby the VNB, for the official opening of the show by theGovernor, Dr Davis McCaughey.
