Anders on first supervising mission

Yesterday Anders travelled with a small group by minibus from Seoul to the eastcoast, in order to have a look at a ROKN (Republic Of Korean Navy)  excercise.
If I understood him correct they were on a Frigate or small destroyer in the sea of Japan.

The supervising was to look at a life firing from a division of destroyers from first fleet from Dong-hae, towards a towed target. It apparently was carried out in the same way as it's done in Sweden or elsewhere. According to Anders it was all done in a professional way.


I just though it took a very long time for him to do this.
He left at 05:30 and returned at 23:45. You think I thought this was fun???? Not really.... However, I realized while talking to him that it was a kind of breakthrough for Sweden; for this was one of the first time the NNSC was approved to supervise this kind of navy exercise. Maybe it had to do with the fact that Anders is a Navy officer.............................

Road to the getting to the excercise.
