Happy to host the ISMERLO US reserve detachment in Northwood this week (9-13 May). Once again a team😊👊

On this day April 21 it is one year since the Indonesian submarine KRI Nanggala went missing.Our thoughts and prayers goes to the 53 submariners on eternal patrol and their family and loved ones left behind.

ISMERLO visit to Undersea Rescue Command in San Diego early Dec 21. Important step for ISMERLO in order to strengthen our relationship and bond. Received great support from URC which is important for us to further improve our website services. Great opportunity for both parties to improve our knowledge and exchange ideas for international cooperation and coordination.
