New Oxygen Volunteer

As I mentioned yesterday we had a potential new volunteer join Josie and I for the 12:30 dive today. It's always nice to have a new person to meet and explain about what we do, especially when they are younger. This young man, a student at university now with the Summer spare, seemed very interested in everything and indicated that he would like to train as an oxygen volunteer, which is excellent news! I look forward to working with him again.

It is only in explaining in detail to someone else, perhaps a newcomer, that I realise how much I have actually learned myself and how far I have come since I started at HMSTC 3+ years ago. It's a nice feeling.

The session today went well. The new starter is about half way through her initial 15 sessions, and is doing great with it so far! Everyone else had a good session too. I performed my senior operator duties, draining the compressor, checking oil, the oxygen tanks and also signing those No. 1 Certificates for my fellow operators.

More from me soon -
