Since
2003, this school has offered a vast array of military diving trainings
in close cooperation with the French navy diving school in Saint-Mandrier.
The aim is to train trainees to unexploded conventional ammunitions
reconnaissance, identification, destruction and disposal methods and
to the conduct of underwater works. Air and mixed gas diving sets are
used day and night.
Fitted with all the educational and technical means needed for the French
know-how transfer in diving, the DCI school uses the land and sea training
areas made available by the French Navy.
“I am proud of this new school confirming the close relationship
DCI maintains with the French navy diving school. This reinforces 11
years of fruitful cooperation and suggests a pooling of means and men
to serve friendly navies.” declares Admiral Bruno Nielly,
DCI-NAVFCO director. |
