Hallo ihr alle da draussen...jetzt ist es soweit! Well...i shouldn't be saying so because we haven't been anywhere...but...BUT...after going back to camp early on Tuesday (yes we all didn't clear our off. Maggots.) and going outfield twice (on Wednesday and Thursday) for deployment drill...i think i can say proudly, 'jetzt sind wir soweit...'
It's fucking absurd that the BATTLEKING crew had to come back only after one day of post-flight off to get ready to fight FATEP by going for deployment drills. I mean, come on. Sigh. But i guess like uncle Hoo puts it...
'I am a fuckers.'
So we all had to come back...and we found out, much to our dismay, that we have really that much to do. Sigh. I really donno what the biggies are thinking. i think they are all wankers. Silly sia...i mean...maybe they should really get the FATEP over and done with in October than delay it to post-THUNDER WARRIOR. Of course, i don't mind not fighting FATEP, but...still...give us our peace...i think it's really silly that well...we have to go for training now, then go for a 3-month hiatus without any training whatsoever...you're going to lose it all anyway!
Ownage. Sigh. Nothing in Oktober except for the maggots...ahem...newly commissioned officers!...coming in...where we will probably have to conduct the 37 package for them...followed by ICCT/ACCT in November...range in Dezember...THUNDER WARRIOR in Januar...and finally, FATEP in Februar. Hopefully boss will pass the FATEP to the maggots...urr...i mean, junior officers and leave us in peace to clear our off. However...
I want to go to THUNDER WARRIOR!
I want to go to THUNDER WARRIOR!
I want to go to THUNDER WARRIOR!
Okay, that's about enough...
On to FATEP training.
The past 2 days have been deployment drills...with yours truly being the Safety Occifer for mel's section and vicey versa. Sigh. i think whoever came up with the manpower allocation for the TPQ-37 must have had welfare in mind. I mean...they are really overstaffed...they have 4 more guys for deployment and camouflaging, while the 36 section has to slog their collective guts out just to get a good timing. Must have been a different TA BC all along...one must have been a fucking dawg and the other a really nice dude.
Not to say that they have no standard! Despite the (unfair?) prevalence of noobs on my section, they've adapted pretty well. We've got a 10:20 deployment timing, which i must say is really quite fucking amazing, isn't it? Mel's side is slightly better, but let's take into account that they don't have to do the following:
1. level the trailer.
2. initialise.
The two things which take the most time and are normally the make-or-break factors...
Derek, my 2I/C, has been going around scribbling his rank on the whiteboard as a Master Sergeant, attempting to stone marc because he didn't bring coffee with the night snack, and generally disturbing the peace. However, he brings some laughs to the section and i guess a few laughs is what people need to keep things up. And it's not like he's a cock at deployment - he knows his stuff too. Plus the specs - ah bang, kwan and the other guys...hopefully we will be able to maintain the team dynamics and have a good training for FATEP. Everyone's doing well, although we are so tired...things will come to pass.
Bah. I'm sitting at home sipping a Rusty Nail. Now, this is the life. Leave the rest for tomorrow. Haha...
