Navy Today is a monthly magazine that celebrates the latest news about the Royal New Zealand Navy and its people. We cover operations and exercises, exploring how our Navy ships work and detail the lives of those who serve on our ships, on shore and in all parts of the world.
In the August edition of Navy Today, we showcase the work of HMNZ Otago in the Western Pacific, carefully staying “non-contact” while pursuing illegal fisheries. HMNZS Manawanui demonstrates its disaster relief capabilities at Great Barrier Island, and we welcome HMNZS Aotearoa to the Navy fleet with a substantial commissioning ceremony. Our ‘lockdown’ officers and sailors graduate, and they tell us their motivations for joining the Navy. We compare the mailbags of yesteryear with the wifi of today, and commend a Physical Training Instructor for showing how Navy can succeed in Afghanistan.
