Girls Day with the navy
Every year, we organise a ‘Girls Day’ with the navy: hundreds of young women are given the opportunity to come on board a navy vessel for a look at what life in the navy is like. The young women have free reign on the ship; they can see what happens anywhere on board, take part in fire drills, and join the crew for the traditional rice table. ACA provides the PR for the girls day. On Girls Day, no topic of conversation is off limits. Even the most prickly of questions will be answered, all under the attentive eye of female journalists. What do the women’s quarters actually look like? Can I buy tampons on board? Can I keep e-mailing my friends and family at sea? Or keep up with Desperate Housewives?
