Yes trell you are correct. 100%
RLSB in EBde only was required to supply 8 drivers.
All drivers including your self were employed by the Inf Bn Tpt Coy. So all drivers no matter what their home unit was were inf drivers for the week end.

For the record there was a total of 56 TCVs in operation. (hats both LTCV and STCVs). Drivers were a mix of RDF and PDF and from all 3 brigades. There were also some spare/relief drivers that were cadre staff from some units but for H&S reasons were made available to the tpt NCO to be uses as and when required.
I am sure there were many drivers confirming directions and routes.
I am sure if you were dropped off in the Curragh and told to head to Rabbit hill you would need directions too since it would be out side your normal AO.
BTW:
Bn Tpt Office was run by a Cpl from my unit as he was the most experienced Tpt NCO that was there. Although he would not normally be in the detail office. From what I heard he did an excellent job .Although a certain WBde officer initially refused to co-operate eventually he was given the respect and co-ooperation from all as he rose to the challenge of ensuring that tpt was were it should be at all times.
