well i think your just suay, my unit's INT and OPs Specs were
pretty gd, doing their job and know their role during excercise.
The regular specs were much better, ensuring the Tact HQ and their
played their roles well. However i gamely recalled this OPs spec
who was a regular in my unit who was overweight and failed IPPT. My
S3 personally gave him RT and combat runs in vest slacks and SBO to
train him up. when i ORD. he managed to pass IPPT, but have not
cleared SOC yet.
Most of the regular specs were doing their sect comds and PS tours
with the rifle companies.Most of them were motivated, often talking
to their section, revising their SOPs. We tend to conduct 1 once a
wk mini patrol missions in camp, allowing the sect comds to command
the their men. From which we could access the strong areas the
comds had. One gd point i watched from these training was the level
of proficency that was drilled in to them by their trainers in
SISPEC, and some of them did say some of the OCs were pretty garang
ppl expecting gd standards from them as trainees.
Most of the specs were rather adequate in their drills and SOPs,
some needed more motivation.One of my specs, a NSF was a real
slacker, and had to be given the hard end of the stick , after
being warned by PS, PC, CSM. well to which there is no point in
going into details.
