PNS Karsaz
The Pakistan Navy Station Karsaz (reporting name: PNS Karsaz) is an initial military school of the Pakistan Navy that provides training to its sailors to be commissioned in the operations branch. It is the largest training formation of the Pakistan Navy that is focused towards providing the skilled technical and physical training.
It is located in the neighborhood of Karsaz in Karachi that provides skilled education on the subjects of the mechanics and the electronics for the Navy's enlisted personnel upon their passing out from the PNS Himalaya— the Navy's only basic training boot camp in Manora Island in Karachi coast, Sindh in Pakistan.
The PNS Karsaz serves to its purpose of conducting the instructional basis vocational education that ranges from the basic–to-mid–to–advance level professional courses on mechanics and military electronics for its Operations Branch. Established with the assistance from the U.S. Navy in 1954, the training and technical education does not restrict to the Navy's enlisted personnel but the enlisted personnel from the Army and the Air Force have been educated, certified, and earned their badges of qualifications from the PNS Karsaz.
Besides providing career training to the Pakistani military's enlisted personnel, the PNS Karsaz has provided crucial training to the allied nations and enlisted members from the navies of Bangladesh, Jordan, Maldives, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and Sri Lanka.
After the partition of India that established the independence of Pakistan from the United Kingdom, the Royal Indian Navy (RIN) was divided between the navies of India and Pakistan, with Pakistan only receiving the one-third of the personnel from the Royal Indian Navy.
At the time of the commencement of the Navy, there was no training formation or a naval station that would ensure the training and education of the new prospective trainee to oversee the functionality of the war machinery in the Navy as India had objected transferring of all the machinery and training establishments that happens to be on Indian soil to Pakistan. The Navy then established two schools that focused on the technical education — Pakistan Navy Polytechnic Institute (PNPI) in 1951 and the PNS Karsaz in 1954.
Establishment of the PNS Karsaz lies with the contribution and the crucial assistance from the United States Navy on 24 September 1954 with Rear-Admiral Zahid Hasnain becoming its first commandant. From 1954 until the late 1960s, the U.S. Navy officers served in the faculty of the PNS Karsaz, with initial courses offered on basic mechanics and machinery in 1954 and later adding instructions on electronics in 1955 with a Damage Control and Firefighting School being established for this purpose.
For meeting the technical training needs in mechanical machinery and electronics, the PNS Karsaz has multidimensional responsibilities by providing education and instructions on machinery maintenance and electrical and circuitry systems in the machines.
