NAVAL DESPATCH FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF ************ ABOUT THE AUTHOR Lt Cdr Akash Chaturvedi was commissioned in Indian Navy on 01 Jan 98. He is a Gunnery Specialist and is presently serving as FAMPHO, Eastern fleet. ************ • The new ensign was trying to impress everybody with what he'd learned in submarine school when the master chief cut him off. "Listen, sir, it's simple," he said. "Add the number of times we dive to the number of times we surface. Divide by two. If it doesn't come out even, don't open the hatch." • A phone call in the middle of the night is no surprise when you're in the military. I had just got one and was on my way out the door when my mother, who was living with me, woke up and asked, "Where are you going?" "I have to report to base," I said. "We have an exercise." Puzzled, she responded, "You exercise in the middle of the night?" HUMOUR IN UNIFORM - COME ON SNOTTY, GIVE A SHOT Lt Cdr Amit V Patil While patrolling in the Andamans during my midshipman days, I was keeping a watch when my C.O. decided to quiz me and my coursemate. After being quizzed for a while, I was directed to revert back to watchkeeping duties. Then, it was the turn of my coursemate, Mid James to get quizzed. I was busy keeping a watch on a fishing boat when James missed one question. “ Give a shot, Patil” said the C.O. I hesitated as my attention was on the fishing boat. “Come on snotty, give a shot” boomed the voice of the Commanding Officer. Promptly, I landed a blow on the head of my coursemate. “ Oh no, I meant "take a guess” sighed the C.O. FFFFFFFFF SEPTEMBER 2010 FFFFFFFFF27
