Hi Chanjyj can u elaborate on what ur fren's Assault here means?
Is this some form of raiding ops that is re-introduced to
GDS?
Bcos back during conversion course back in 2003, we had this EX
SUMMEX in which is a concluding exercise that encompasses what u
learnt all this weeks. It is a 7D6N back to back exercise with
minimum amount of lull time in between(eg. rest).
In this ex, we are divided into red land and blue land. Both force
are supposed to attack each other through ambush, fighting patrol,
security and things on that line. But what interest me was this
component. Each section is supposed to attack this water treatment
plant that have been designated as communication facility for this
Exercise. The opposing force will send out fighting patrols, and
ppls to provide perimeter defenses. Before the force set off for
this mission. we are supposed to make cross-charges and carry many
blocks to simulate block charges, that we learnt during explosive
ordance lessons.
It was free for all in which the blue force or red force platoon
will think of how to carry out the attack at night under the
command of the PC. The OC later gave a little discussion on the
possible route of attack.......... in the morning.
Is this considered as some form of raid or something else i was not
aware.............
