Your point doesn’t stand Mike 

One of the Norwegians is an ROV pilot the other a medic 🤷‍♂️neither have ever dived commercially . The Finnish and British or even Scots comments are just crap. 

Not really,time on boats counts as offshore experience.  I am sure that both guys at some point could see how their careers as Navy divers was going to smooth their transition to offshore work.

Don't Scots join for the fighting?

We've an unwritten rule that we have to be nice to people when we're abroad so that we're distinguishable from other Brits, so once you've fought with everyone in your village/town/city the next step traditionally is soldiering.
