A general question.
Checking out the recruiting website, I watched the short film for MARE officers (is it still called that these days?), where they state that before people actually get posted aboard a ship for their first active tour, they spend time in Portsmouth in England. Is that still effective? And if so, which shore establishment do they go to? I did read that HMS Sultan at Gosport handles all maritime engineering training in the Royal Navy these days. Is this true for Canadian officers, or is all training handled fully on this side of the Atlantic these days?
Thanks again!
