Well done and welcome home for the next week or so for Dave Pascoe who has passed his Navy recruit course. I know from personal experience how hard the culture shock can be, particularly in the first few weeks and it takes a lot of willpower to get through it. The NZDF can give you experiences no civilian would ever get to see and do, so good luck with the rest of your career… and don’t get into too much trouble!
