Click on the links below to download archive issues of the Royal Navy Minewarfare & Diving (MAD) Magazine.  This was published by the Minewarfare, Diving, Demolitions and Seamanship (MDDS) Faculty of the School of Maritime Operations (SMOPS) in HMS Nelson (GUNWHARF) (formerly HMS Vernon) between 1989 and 1995, then by the Defence Diving School (DDS) on Horsea Island between 1995 and 1996, then by the Minewarfare Section of SMOPS at HMS Dryad between 1997 and 2003, then the final issue by the Minewarfare Training Element at SMOPS HMS Collingwood in 2005.
The pdf files are 'searchable' but relatively large so download may take some time.
