A team
from Recruit School at HMAS Cerberus has taken to the road to make
a run for it in the annual Sydney City to Surf fun run.
Ten recruits from GE196, accompanied by three staff travelled the
Hume Highway to experience two nights in HMAS Manoora, which provided
their base for the gruelling City to Surf.
The recruits spent an afternoon with duty watch undertaking a tour
of the ship and then a familiarisation tour of their respective
departments.
Recruits also visited HMAS Sydney to observe first hand the workings
of an FFG, with many now aiming for a posting to either Manoora
or an FFG.
Sydney then put on a perfect day for the City to Surf, with many
of the recruits running the 14km course for the first time.
RCT Fluke was the first from Cerberus to finish in a time of 78.19mins,
with all recruits starting in the back of the pack.
RCT Fluke was also named sportsperson of the intake.
The staff and recruits would like to thank the CO and ship’s
company of HMAS Manoora for the time onboard and also CO TS Sydney
for the tour of Spectacle Island and CPOB Robertson for driving
the bus.
