p. 60 · Read in the full issue
Seven Fijian candidates have qualified for the Marine Board Certificate which permits them to operate vessels up to 100 tons, and 11 others have passed the examination but have not yet completed their two years’ sea service. Classes were arranged by the Fiji Rehabilitation Board and students have been instructed by Commander J. Mullins. At a ceremony at the conclusion of the 1947 session Ratu Sir Lala Sukuna presented certificates to the students, and Mr. C. H. Carne, Fiji Rehabilitation Officer, congratulated Commander Mullins on achieving 100 per cent, success with his pupils. Photo shows successful students and, seated in centre (left to right): Mr. C.
