Good morning,
After six years working at Command Base in Luni, I am leaving Luni. My next command will be in Catania, Sicily.
Working with all of you at the renewal of the helo dunker has been a wonderful experience which has permitted the new set up of a state-of-the-art dunker simulator which is providing the best training for our crews
In this occasion I would like to address a special thanks to Rick Bickerton for his pragmatism, intelligence and will to move forward. The successful completion of this project is also due to his contribution.
