  • 1 Service Story of Commander John Berridge RNZN
    © Royal Navy Instructor Officers’ Association, 2020 - all rights reserved Service Story of Commander John Berridge RNZN This is my contribution as a Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) Instructor Officer from 1970 to 1990 and is about the Instructor Officer branch of the RNZN as well as my own recollections of my time in the Service. I also have a strong affinity to the Royal Navy (RN) as my late father was a Chief Electrical Artificer (CEA) in the RN from 1928 to 1950 serving in HM Ships Ramillies, Achilles, Renown, Cleopatra, Manxman and Cossack; of great significance is the fact that his last posting was to the RNZN on loan. He then spent 20 more years in the Devonport (Auckland) Naval Dockyard as a fire control technician. He met my mother in 1936 in Auckland while serving in HMS Achilles; she travelled to the UK in 1941, where they married and she then worked for the NZ Government in London for the rest of the war years. The cruiser HMS Achilles was launched in 1932 before being transferred to the New Zealand Division of the Royal Navy in 1936. Following the formal establishment of the Royal New Zealand Navy in October 1941, the ship became HMNZS Achilles. HMS Achilles alongside Aotea Quay, Wellington, during the late 1930s Source: Photograph by Sydney Charles Smith (New Zealand Government History website) In July 1948 HMNZS Achilles was transferred to the Indian Navy and became the INS Delhi. The ship attended the 1953 Coronation Review and also played itself in the David Lean film “Battle of the River Plate” before it was eventually decommissioned and scrapped in 1977.
