    Nice clip. Pity that the major refit of 2009/10 only was good for 2 years...

    Interesting that the sailor's job was a "stoker" on an oil fueled gas turbine....

    Default Stokers

    The RCN MOS is Marine Engineer Mechanic (MarEngM) but their shipmates continue to refer to them as stokers.

    The sailors no longer hand, reef and steer, either.
