“In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.”

***  JOTW will publish its 1,000th newsletter sometime in early January 2014.  JOTW will be establishing a special page on the www.nedsjotw.com website for comments.  We hope that those of you who have derived some benefit from being a part of the JOTW cooperative network will take a moment to share something.  Watch for details about JOTW CONNECT!

Posting a job is free.    The newsletter is then posted at www.nedsjotw.com.  Recruiters can submit up to three jobs for free.  Each job listing may be posted once in the newsletter for free

 

I request that you do not send pdf files that I have to copy and reformat.  I prefer you provide your very brief job description in an email rather than an enclosure.  I must limit the size of your position descriptions (generally to 500 words or less) as I have a 132KB size limit on the newsletter, which equates to about 7,200 words total.

One skiff with five heavily armed pirates approached a product tanker while underway. Alarm was raised, crew alerted, fire pumps started, speed increased, evasive manoeuvres made, SSAS alert activated and authorities were informed. The pirates fired at the tanker and the armed security on board returned fire. The skiff aborted the attack and moved away.

Duty crew on board an anchored chemical tanker spotted two boats nearby. Robbers attempted to board the tanker via anchor chain but alert crew thwarted the boarding. The second boat was hidden near the propeller and the crew could not chase them away with fire hoses. The propeller was turned on resulting in the robbers moving away. The robbers were sported with some stolen hull anodes in their boat. Port Control informed.
