Today I went to see a Navy Ship, the HMCS Shawinigan. I got to go on it and get a picture of a person sitting in the captains chair with a vest and a hat. They have a 40mm rapid fire gun, and 250 calibre HMGs.
In the Navy, when you cross the Arctic, the youngest have to paint the bull's ring on the front on the boat in their underwear. They paint it blue in the Arctic and red in the Equator.
The ship is going to Owen Sound and then Goderich to help with the tornado clean up.
Wow! Very cool! Did your brother go with you?
