Video showing SEN-017 clip from Ken Senar's film.   Jever swimming pool in use.   The pool was used by all ranks most evenings and weekends in the warmer weather.   It had very steeply shelving sides and was adapted for use from a pre-existing emergency water tank.   It served its purpose well and was frequently very busy in the summer heat.   It was also sometimes used for dinghy drill.
Robbie Roberts tells us that later he scrounged wood from old discarded jet-engine crates from the Supply Branch, and built a fence round the outside. There is no sound with this clip.   This clip runs for 52 secs.

(Thanks to Ken Senar for original film.)
