Despite leaving the mob in 1981 I still keep in contact with many of my Opos from when I was in. This is for the 'Jimmy' when I was on HMS Wilton and then my boss at HMS Vernon. He took me under his wing and as a diving team we spent many hours in a variety of bars and he sent me on a jolly to an island in the South Pacific (Funafuti) for 3 months, flown there by the RAF.
