Aw come on. You guys have no idea what happens in command
schools. The senior officers are fond of saying that “there is no
CAT 1 under canopy”. Which means that even with a
lightning storm, people are ’ safe ’ under the canopy. So its very
likely that they were kind of following a directive.
Besides.. SAF is never wrong. Its always determined
that the trainees who do not comply with safety regulations. But
really..
Well I think this applied to places where lightning is not prone
to happen. But here? These are officers they should be more
intelligent.....but in this case I think they should have more
common sense. If you cannot stop halfway, you should advice the
trainees to continue until they find some place safe to rest, not
under the tree. If they continued and got stuck by lightning,
cannot help accident happened. But this is asking for it.
