Everything is volunteer based not just the defense force. No one gets conscripted into an apprenticeship or university. Volunteering in the military is the same concept as volunteering to eat a hamburger or become an accountant. No one made a law that says you have do any of it. Once you're in you can then volunteer to do things that you haven't been signed up to do like go on a sub, but you'll be getting paid to do it

Hi,
I believe that the pay scale for the submarine chefs is near eye-watering.
Cheers

That just means he's cutting up too many White Onions I believe the reds don't affect you like that. Probably nothing to do Pay Scales at all.

THE highest paid non-officer in the military is not an SAS sergeant fluent in three languages taking out Taliban bombmakers in Afghanistan - it's the guy cooking food on a submarine.
A senior sub-sea chef with more than six years experience under his belt earns up to $200,000 a year, the same money as a junior admiral.

Electrical technicians will be higher paid.

Speaking of bombs at least the Chef could knock up a decent Bombe Alaska, also a Chef with a 6 year stint under his belt would need a 6XL Belt. At least. Boom Tish.

President sends condolences to relatives of 53 crew of KRI Nanggala, which lost contact on Wednesday

A missing Indonesian submarine has been found, broken into at least three parts, deep in the Bali Sea, army and navy officials have said, as the president sent condolences to relatives of the 53 crew.

The navy chief of staff, Yudo Margono, said the crew was not to blame for the sinking. “The KRI Nanggala is divided into three parts, the hull of the ship, the stern of the ship, and the main parts are all separated, with the main part found cracked,” he said.

Authorities said that they received signals from the location more than 800 metres deep early Sunday morning and that they had used an underwater submarine rescue vehicle supplied by Singapore to get a visual confirmation.
