One For The Ladies - A Man In Uniform!



Many of you will have met and spoken to Malcolm Black, who was a valued member of our sales team until he left Atlas in 2010 to join the Royal Navy. He is progressing very well with his Officer Training and really enjoying the experience.

Malcolm’s fame in the Navy appears to be growing following an appearance on the Discovery Channel this week! As part of his training he was lucky enough to go aboard the flagship aircraft carrier “HMS Ark Royal” on her final voyage for her final deployment before being decommissioned. It just so happened that the camera crew were aboard filming whilst the Officer Cadets were preparing for an exam. The highlight of the show was hearing the results being called out, “Mr Black, top of the class, 99%”. A big well done Malcolm, keep up the hard work.

The series has been interesting to date as it follows the illustrious ship during its mission to head up the largest International Naval peacetime exercise whilst trying avoid the ash cloud and experiencing having engineering issues forcing her to dock back at Portsmouth. You can watch the show on the Discovery Channel at 10pm each Tuesday. Episodes are currently repeated on Thursday at 10pm, Saturday 3pm and Sunday at 5pm. Keep an eye out for Malcolm.
