Hmm when I served as a Royal Netherlands Marine between 1969 till 1972 .. once we left Port ... like Den Helder , we all spoke English.. Dutch was not spoken during official Millitairy or sea hours as we use to call it
To Marc.. my apologies ..I did not mean to yell.. ofcourse when the crew was not on duty we spoke Dutch . At that time it was recommended to speak English at all times, since we had American And Canadians on board as well..
Makes me wonder though.. since the Everson is currently part of an international armada and part of a carrier strike group, if the Navy stil incourage the use English on board .
@@mvdb8028 .. I honestly don't know what they were speaking in the kitchen.. all I remember, since we had many American Marines and Canadian Technicians onboard that time ( No Women yet ) they wanted these guy to integrate with the Dutch crew during a 6 months deployment . and the request was made to speak as much English as possible .
Gediend van 1988 tot 1996 en geen seconde spijt gehad.
