Day 8 and beyond...

The learning curve is getting very steep, but not difficult. The course delivery is still at a very high standard and the pracitcal work we are being given as well as an insight for the future is helping us with our training. I have to say surv training was very good I enjoyed it. My photography is getting better, im actually getting the whole picture in shot now hehee.

We are learning about recce's, SAP and starting to put together what we have learnt. Map reading that I had learnt a long time ago was coming back to me, after the first half hour not done it for a long time, I am finding it enjoyable. I have to say that actullay by doing practical and classroom lectures, I am taking more in.

Learning new radio proceedures, changing the way I am used to doing things...learning the military way. I can see now why its done a specific and certain way. Its done for a reason and that is because is been tried and tested, it is used over and over again for a long time and it works!

Explosives devices, searching proceedures very interesting, it opened my eyes I can tell you. Very scary all at the same, theses devices are lethal. I really enjoyed this part of the course. I have to say each section we have covered in great detail, its not just scanned over it is very detailed nothing was missed.

I will leave the best til last... Live Exercise, ina seperate blog
