Before I start I want to say how much I appreciate what the Leaders/PL/SL's are doing and trying to do with the outfit as organising 300+ blokes is no mean feat and the time / effort will always go un noticed by the most.
I love Outfit training because its the 1 time where you know Teamwork is the focus compared to in the day time where its a little bit of a FFA aslong as your playing the objective which I guess is also cool since people don't wanna play too serious and have the time to do the things they want to do. But I am getting a little frustrated with the huge gap between outfit what we practice and what we actually do.
For me the outfit training on Tuesday went a little sideways as we started focusing on the nitty gritty of breaching a doorway rather than the basic objective (worrying about the order in who goes left/right isn't really the talking point, what should be is the the next person goes the opposite way.. that is how CQB is done and IBT is perfected not what some REMF has done/seen.
I myself am a little unsure as to what the outfit is about (hardocre/casual etc) as some times we seem very serious regarding coms and others it pretty much is a FFA. I suppose its to manage my expectations as I don't wanna be the grumpy cunt upsetting peeps. but equally I do get annoyed when I hear comments about clearing coms/playing the objective when then 2 seconds latter there's a discussion about a completely non related topic e.g dog porn and then movement that doesn't really support what was previously said is the objective being played.
I guess what im really getting at is can either the Leaders/officers in the daytime either relax a little as to how we play the game/objectives/conts in the day or can we try and stick a little more to what were "learning" during outfit training time.
Sorry if I have rambled etc and I hope im not the only one who has noticed this or I will happily get back in my box and stfu xx
