January 15-17 Training.
We are hosting a training weekend at a farm in Halifax, VA (south central VA). Emphasis is on squad training (movement and tactics), heavy weapons (MG and Mortars) and medical. We still have slots available for any 505 troopers who wish to attend. We will train all day Saturday (within daylight hours) and then conclude on Sunday by noon. Sunday will include a couple of field training problems in which SLs will be given missions to accomplish. Some blank firing will be involved Sunday but we aren't going to burn through a bunch of ammo. Mortar crews will get to practice sending rounds down-range with both 60 and 81mm weapons.
We know this is only 2 weeks before Enfield but we are trying to get it in between the holidays and Enfield. Anyone who wishes to attend, please message me either here or on FB.
Mess will be provided also.
