HMAS Perth Trains Hard for Unit Readiness Evaluation
Posted on Jun 26th, 2013 with tags Defence, Emergency Procedures, Evaluation, hard, HMAS, Melbourne, Naval, Navy,News by topic, Perth, Readiness, Seamanship, Sirius, Trains, Unit, Warfare.
HMAS Perth is a little way from her home port of Fleet Base West as she works hard in the East Australian Exercise Area, near Jervis Bay to prepare for a Unit Readiness Evaluation where she will be tested on Warfare, Seamanship, Emergency Procedures and much more in preparation for a busy six months of exercises.
Perth has battled huge swells brought on by a cold weather front on the east coast, conducted a Replenishment at Sea with HMAS Sirius and supported HMAS Melbourne in her important “Work Up” and Readiness Examination.
This intense practical assessment conducted by Sea Training Group onboard ships and boats is to prepare them for major deployments.
After exercising in the east side of the country with her colleagues on Sirius and Melbourne, the 175 men and women in Perth will continue to a major joint amphibious exercise in Queensland in July.
