O’Dea on hand as six naval cadets commissioned
The chief-of-staff of the Defence Forces, Lieutenant General Dermot Earley and the flag officer commanding the Naval Service, Commodore Frank Lynch, watched on as the six young men became officers at the ceremony at Haulbowline Naval Base.
The cadets, from Cork, Wexford, Clare, Kildare and Galway have now completed the first two years of their intensive training programme.
