The Weekly 'All-Round Look' Newsletter

The weekly SIA All Round Look Newsletter editor uses a Meltwater media analysis tool to filter media articles of interest for distribution to SIA Members and ARL Newsletter recipients. A synthesis of information of interest. The operational term ‘All Round Look’ applies to the use of the periscope to conduct a 360 degree sweep of the sea surface to establish the proximity – and potential threat to the safety of the submarine, of vessels visible through the periscope.  A gathering of information of critical interest.

An article, by Dr David Parry (a perisher graduate and author of ‘Perisher: A Hundred Years of the Submarine Command Course’) looks at the genesis of the operational ‘All Round Look’, via this link.
