\n

Some guests on board a Navy boat<\/strong><\/p>\n

AS PART of activities marking the 16th<\/sup> anniversary celebration of the Ghana Navy, the Eastern Naval Command (ENC) in Tema, held an Open Day to strengthen relations between the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) and the country\u2019s civilian population.<\/p>\n

Thousands of civilians including children from various basic,
\nsecond cycle schools in Tema and some personnel from other security disciplines
\nwere taken on a guided tour of the Navy installation.<\/p>\n

There were drills, display of weapons,
\nNavy uniforms, speed boat display and other activities.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Flag Officer Commanding, Eastern
\nNaval Command, Commodore Samuel Walker, explained that the objective of the
\nOpen Day is to get the citizenry to have a better understanding of the naval
\nestablishment as a first step towards fostering friendly ties between the Ghana
\nNavy and the public. <\/p>\n

He called for cordial relations
\nbetween the military and the civil society, entreating civilians to dispel the
\nnotion that the military is unfriendly. <\/p>\n

The Flag Officer Commanding was
\noptimistic that the day will reconcile and bring together civilian and the
\nmilitary in the society and also correct the myth surrounding the
\nperceived fearful nature of the place.<\/p>\n

Members were also given a sea trip
\nride by the Navy. <\/p>\n

Some children and adults who participated in the event could not
\nhide their exhilaration.<\/p>\n
