works for me too on another computer.

**SwiftandSure** · 7th November 2012, 13:10

Just tried from a different computer, in a different browser, separate VPN, and logged out. Still no joy.

**madmark** · 7th November 2012, 13:16

no joy for me either

**RoyalGreenJacket** · 7th November 2012, 13:17

Currently logged in from my phone and able to see it.

Odd.

Are you able to see it as the poster, and Trell able to see as a mod?

Yes the team was made up of the winners of this years Recce Concentration plus a number of others from the same unit. They got a silver medal what ever that equals too.
RoyalGreenJacket your unit seems to have given them a hard time in Wales, kicking them out of some of the facilities as soon as the seen they were Irish.

Well done on the Silver Medal lads!

I'd be very disappointed to hear that there was any mistreatment of the DF being hosted by the BA. Is that a real message?

Yes it happened.

**SwiftandSure** · 24th October 2013, 10:51

Sorry to hear that Rhodes.

Did it have any impact on the lads' performance on the patrol? I hope it didn't taint any future endeavours with the Cambrian Patrol, this seems like a good thing going forward.

It didn't effect them on the actual two day exercise but they were there for a week.

i ****ing dispair sometimes, i really do.

**RoyalGreenJacket** · 24th October 2013, 16:48

Silver is a decent result and well done on that - that's what we achieved on ours but we lost a bloke (no duff casualty).

as for the alleged mistreatment - none of us can comment until we know the details.

was 1RIFLES the hosting unit for ONH?

it certainly is, for a first time effort with new weapons, new comms, new terrain and probably some different drills - and not to mention some very high expectations in the home units - its very, very good.

When on FTT, I saw those guys rehearsing their counter ambush drills. I recall thinking they were very slick, and very technical. Had no idea they were prepping for the Cambrian Patrol. Well done to the 27Bn for yet another fine display of field soldiering!

Stay alert in the coming years for the Canadian Patrol Concentration (CPC); the first (trial) serial was held this year in Wainwright, Alberta. The trial was done with section-sized teams, but the intent is for platoon-sized fighting patrols.

The concentration wil be held annually, in different locations: mountains, arctic, plains, woodland.

Here are a few pics from the trial this year:

ooh, looks like a superb opportunity for a jolly, err... i mean a challenging training opportunity that reforges blah blah blah...

please, not in bug season. something coolish, but not telephone-number-cold, and in the mountains would be great. a nice long patrolling ex would be very good news - say about a 2 weeker with a hels resup, and no bugs. did i mention no bugs?
