Officers from Bangladesh, Vietnam graduate from INS Garuda
Kochi, Jan 11 (PTI): Two officers - one from
Bangladesh and the other from Vietnam - passed out of the
Observer School in INS Garuda at the Southern Naval Command
here Friday.
The officers underwent the 11th foreign observer
course at the school, a defence press release said.
Commodore RR Ayyar, Commanding Officer, INS Garuda,
presented certificates to the officers at a graduation
ceremony, the release said.
Extending its hand of friendship and assistance
across the oceans, the Indian Navy imparted the training to
the officers to meet the requirements of the two countries,
it said.
The officers were trained in basic air navigation,
flying procedures - both over land and sea, tactics employed
in air warfare and exploitation of airborne avionic systems,
the release said.
Flying training over sea provided the two foreigners
exposure to the officers in maritime reconnaissance, including
sea lanes of communication (SLOC) monitoring and search and
Rescue, it said.
The officers would now be joining the naval
aviation wing of their respective countries, it added.
