All of the above proved to be fascinating viewing. I found the experience of visiting an actual battle ship interesting as a part-time pacifist! Although partial to the odd scrape, I am certainly not pro war, and the fact that a large proportion of mankind seems to believe that an army is a necessity, or the fact that mankind has created a situation where an army appears to be a necessity and war a solution to a problem truly disturbs me.

The space was oppressive amongst its functionality and meticulous order, the equipment robust and environment manly.
