SA Navy welcomes next generation of sailors

Navy recruits celebrate new status

SOUTH AFRICA: Just under 450 new sailors officially entered the South African Navy last week when the Chief of the Navy, Vice Admiral Monde Lobese officiated over their passing out parade in Saldanha Bay.

The parade, which marked the culmination of six months of Basic Military Training saw 263 males and 179 females mark their official entry into the navy at SAS Saldanha parade ground where Vice Admiral Lobese reminded them of the core values of naval members.

“These are honour, courage, integrity, commitment, accountability, responsibility and ethics. You will need to always understand their importance in your efforts to continue serving in the SAN and your country,” he told the new sailors in the presence of their families.

“Our Navy has a long history that is full of challenges and victories, and now it is your time to add to that tradition. You are the future of the Navy, and I am confident that you will meet the challenge,” he added.
