Mil Sim Field Exercise August 6,7, 2011

[Darius137]

Looking athte signup, it has CAG with an STA team. I must have forgot to tell you, but we're just bringing a squad of about 6-8 guys

[Variable]

Sacred: don't worry too much, I'm sure someone in your platoon will let you borrow a shovel when you need it.
Dan: I'll amend the roster. Thanks for bringing glowsticks too.
Cypher: Got it.
Snowman: Yes. The intent here is to have a red light for navigation and stuff so that people aren't blowing each other's eyeballs out every time they need to find something.

[Darius137]

I think Fragistan is no longer an infantry element and only the two STA teams, so if you could remove them from 2PLT.

Who is the CO/XO and who is in charge of each PLT? I call "not it" on all counts, also.

I'm assuming everything else will be told to us on site? How much control do PLTs have in operation and mission accomplishment?

[Variable]

Dan:
CO - Me
XO - One of my cronies
Platoon leaders will be figured out once I find out which squads actually show up. It might end up as 2 platoons instead of 3. I'll give some squad leaders a promotion/double duty. Once in the field the PLs will have alot of leeway on how to organize things within parameters, and its up to their imagination to accomplish it.

For example I'll detail how I want a lane set up and the PL decides how to accomplish it. Then people move, triggers get pulled, and skills get exercised.

[Darius137]

Are there additional points for "Combat jacks" ?

[Variable]

Are there additional points for "Combat jacks" ?

Yes. Combat jacks are worth over 9000 points.

[Darius137]

Sorry to do this so late, but our squad is dropping like wee pansy flowers.

Change our infantry squad to an STA team of 3.

[Variable]

Ah Dan, yer busting my balls, and not in a good way. See you tomorrow.

[ScaredShooter]

I will be bringing about 50 glowsticks. You can pick one up for $1 from me. Yup.

I swear, every time I airsoft I spend as much on stuff there as the actual event admission fee.

Sacred: don't worry too much, I'm sure someone in your platoon will let you borrow a shovel when you need it.

Cool. It's Scared, not Sacred. I am fearful not holy.

$1 admission fee plus $1 glow stick for a dead rag. OMG MOST EXPENSIVE EVENT EVAR!
LOL.
Also yeah, I make typos too.

[Darius137]

And just like that, we're back up to a full squad. The 808th are plussing us up.

We'll have two M240B's with us to set up a proper patrol base for a 24 hour game.

See you on the field.

[ScaredShooter]

Ok so I initially said there would be five of me.
We are down to four.

But the catch is, we might be down to three. One of our peoples is extremely tentative. But I'm hoping he'll be there. So we're 3 or 4.

The second catch is that even though it says you can't do one day, most of my members will be leaving at midnight because they have to go home in order to sleep and prepare for this thing known as church. I may stay for both days.

Can i work at the patrol base as long as i dont have to get upsidedown up?

[Variable]

Dan: Okie dokie smokie
Scared: Church will always be there next week.

[ScaredShooter]

Ok, this should be the final thing.

Got 4 of us. Two will be leaving early, the other two of us will be enjoying the full she-bang.

I'm stoked.
