A first-person account of the birth of Combat Diving in Brazil. Theo Toscano—better known as Commander Toscano—recounts his journey in the field, from the establishment of the Combat Diver Group and the challenges of conducting the first-ever Combat Diving course in Brazil, to setting a Brazilian Navy record for autonomous (scuba) diving at the age of 66.
In its September issue, DIVEOPS presents several important updates and new releases. A key highlight is the Brazilian Navy's addition of a new Search and Rescue (SAR) boat to the Rio de Janeiro Port Authority, further strengthening efforts to safeguard lives at sea.
This edition also covers the step-by-step process for the public procurement of diving equipment under the new Bidding Law, the technical work of the *ACTION Dive and Rescue* channel, PADI's 60th anniversary, the return of CMAS to Brazil via the CBES, and an exclusive interview with Cláudio Ferreira.
