Engineering Technician (Marine Engineering) Kai Hitchcock, at just 18 years old, is proving his mettle as the youngest sailor aboard HMS Biter during Exercise Tamber Shield in Norway.

Exercise Tamber Shield marks ETME Hitchcock’s first deployment with the Royal Navy, and he’s already handling significant responsibilities with aplomb.
