"Parranatta"received <strong>of</strong>ficial recognitionrom the Naval Board. This Unitis functioning satisfactorily and itis most heartening that the number<strong>of</strong> Cade's on strength remainssteady. Prevent indications are thatT.S. "Parramatta" will make evenfurther progress when they areab!c to transfer from their present.school location to their own Headquarters.This requirement is infact being closely pursued by the<strong>Navy</strong> <strong>League</strong> and it is anticipatedthai the problem will be overcomewi:hin the next twelve months. Allother Units are operating satisfactorilywith Officers and Instructorscontinuing to show the utmost keennessand enthusiasm.However, a disturbing factor hasbeen the fall in the number <strong>of</strong>Cadets overall and steps are beingtaken in an endeavour to rectifythis decline. The lack <strong>of</strong> PublicRelations has. to some extent, beenresponsible for this state <strong>of</strong> affairsas by far the great majority <strong>of</strong> thepublic is not even aware <strong>of</strong> theexistence <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Australia</strong>n SeaCadet Corps.M Mr ' •»•—*• Dennis • P. •"•*-!—.

"Tobruk" was adjudged the"most efficient" Unit in <strong>1965</strong>. TheDirector <strong>of</strong> Naval Reserves will beinspecting this Unit on the 7th<strong>Aug</strong>ust. <strong>1965</strong>, as T.S. "Tobruk"qualifies with the "top" Unit ineach Division for selection as thenumber one Unit in <strong>Australia</strong>.Periods <strong>of</strong> training have beenundertaken in ships and shore establishmentsbut unfortunately due tocommitments <strong>of</strong> the Fleet no actualsea training could be undertaken.Specialist courses were run and theresults were most gratifying.f*+*0+000m*+0+000*+0*l0O0m00+6*06&0lM*fl0**t000&m000009000+60+0*06l0*SUBSCRIPTION FORMTo "The <strong>Navy</strong>",Box CI 78, Clarence Si net Pod Office,Sydney, N.S.W., AUSTRALIA.I enclose 24/- for Annual Subscription to "The <strong>Navy</strong>", port tree.NamePLEASE PRINT CLEARLYPlea
