a very shitty wk
ATEC Stage 1! It was held on Wednesday and Thursday and my crew was suay enough to be involved in crew drills assessment on Thursday. We were tasked to do mounting/dismounting of tank, prep for fire, overturning drill and my worst nightmare, artificial camo! Hai, as I feared, we failed the artificial camo, which almost the whole battalion noes le.
This wk was very tiring b4 the Stage 1 evaluation even started cos the wk started for me on Sunday wif my guard duty, sianz. After tt, on Monday and Tuesday, we were so busy tt I nvr got the chance to really rest enough. On Friday, we had to mount a laser system on our tanks which will b tested during out nxt outfield on Tuesday. We were taught how to mount and use the system in the morn and we spent the whole aftnoon at the veh shed refueling our tanks, mounting the necessary stuff and the laser system lorz.
Well, back to the artificial camo. Hai, as said earlier, being 'promoted' to 24C crew is gd and bad and the bad part is shown here. Sgt William lost his temper during our drill when Alex suggested not to do what he told him to do and Sgt William got angry and blew his top. To achieve recon 1, we need to finish setting up the camo net in 15mins. However, on 14mins, when we realised the net was not evenly distributed and the back of the tank will nt be properly covered, Sgt William made a bad decision to take down the net at the front to redo the net and in the end, we failed lorz. The umpire was telling him tt it was a bad decision cos we could've finished wif a recon 2A timing and wif an error of nt covering the back of the tank, get a recon 2B which is still a pass lorz.
Hai, he made me his gunner cos he got feedback from Sgt Kenny tt I've good working attitude. The thing is, tt is becos I dun challenge their orders mahz, I tend to be a bit more accomodating to them compared to other platoon mates cos I noe they like to be treated wif 'respect' as they're our commanders. Actually I'm also very unhappy wif some stuff which they instruct us to do wanz, jus tt I dun challenge or question their orders lorz. Hai, hafta tolerate Sgt William for 3 more wks, 2 more outfields!!
