Technical DeploymentRawwr!! We had our first real deployment on Wed where we went through the procedures like loading of stores, sending out the convoy and guiding the vehicles into the deployment ground. It was not very easy as we were still not too sure of ourselves. Whats more, our CO was like watching us mere metres away lor! Stress..
When we finally moved the stores up the tonners (which weigh like dunno how much in total), we hooked up and moved off! Yup it was a nice feeling to be finally doing the real thing. But it was hard.. With just 8 of us deploying half a Fire Unit, it was madness!! Really tired out after all that.. Learning how to camo the equipment, build the different points ie. sentry point, learning how to emplace etc etc.. It was really hard and tiring.. The time we finished? 4 plus the next morning.. goodness.. eyes really closing.. the rain didnt help things at all lor..
We had our share of mistakes and funny moments (running after tonners lol) and I think we all learnt a lot this time.. But at the same time I got a feeling of dread. This deployment was 1 day.. Summex is 4! Think we will all be switched off by the 3rd day.. lol now we're speculating on whos the CPC for Tryout.. haha..
3 more weeks to the end of all our suffering! Gambatte!
