History of the Officers' Association We are delighted to advise that we have published a history of the Officer' Association over the last 25 years. Huge thanks must go to our Honorary Secretary, Lt Cdr Janice Rouse for the enormous amount of work she has put into this over the last couple of years, as well as to those from across the membership who have contributed. If you feel we have some of the detail incorrect or have omitted something important, please do let us know. You can find this work in our History section under The Officers' Asscociation

Remembrance Ceremonies Officers Association Chairman Captain Jim Palmer was kindly invited to join HMS Collingwood's Remembrance ceremonies. He joined Captain Catherine Jordan in laying a wreath on behalf of the Officers Association at the Falklands Memorial.

Presentation of the OA Sword We're delighted to advise that this year's OA sword was presented at a special ceremony at HMS Collingwood on Friday 23^rd July. The recipient was Lt Cdr Tom Forbes who, until recently, was serving at the Defence Diving School, delivering the Minewarfare and Clearance Diving Officer's course. The sword was a new sword purchased by the Association, rather than being donated. It was presented by Commodore Andy Jordan RN, currently Deputy Director Ships at Defence Equipment and Support. A full copy of the citation can be found on the 2021 sword page.
