So, in their infinite wisdom - after various tests - the Navy decided that I should be a gunnery rating. More specifically a Quarters Armourer. I'm still in Drake barracks - only a different section. I was taught how to take guns to pieces and how to maintain them. The biggest gun was a 4-inch mounting. There were also Bofors guns, which were renamed 40/60s after awhile, don't ask me why. On completion of this course, I became a 2nd Class QA unqualified - which meant I needed more experience.
About a week before this course was finished, I heard that I was getting another draft chit to HMS Mounts Bay - a Bay Class frigate.
