He's coming home one way or another. They leave no one behind.
His mum's already had the dreaded telegram....so sad. He's been winched up to 4x4 heaven by hi-viz angels.
We salute his last deployment.
It's what he would have wanted though, to go out selflessly directing ordinary members of the public to the portaloos at a MAJOR event.
If only he had seen the steam tractor coming......

Oh dear. Clearly I have not been trained in proper procedure. At approximately 0753 this morning, I was approached by a CID (civilian in distress), later identified as my neighbour from across the street, with a non-functioning VSP (vehicle starting procedure).
I immediately deployed myself to his aid, having made a dynamic risk assessment, to investigate the the CFC (cause for concern).
Investigation uncovered the reason for the FTS (failure to start) was because of a depleted battery in the vehicle. I immediately took the decision, without authorisation from Gold Command, to utilise my PBC set (portable booster cables) in order to reconcile the issue. Once this was complete it was duly recognised by the civ-res (civilian resident) that the matter had been caused by sidelights being left on during lights-out overnight, attributed to mem-pub (member of the public) having provided use of the vehicle to his NGSCLP (non-gender-specified civilian life partner (wife)) at circa 2033Z the previous day.
This was completed by approximately 0758 and I went back to complete my PDIR (post-deployment incident report).
Failures highlighted as above:
1. No use by me of hi-vis jacket
2. No use by myself of multitude of flashing amber lights and hi visibility tape and markings.
3. Did not identify myself as a trained pro-am roadside assist team member, due to not being.
4. I sold my Land Rover 6 months ago and used a Skoda Superb for all of this
5. I didn't use correct pseudo-military terminology throughout the interaction.
Out.

I went on brown level deployment
That made me laugh far more than is right.
"Well. No s
t. What have we got here? A fking comedian..."OpulentBob? Henceforth to be known as Private Joker. You had better unf
k yourself, or a man in a hi-vis vest will be along with a protocol to unscrew your head and st down your neck. You can't be laughing about this stuff. It's about serious life-or-death situations, and you've got to learn how to make the right choices. Only a proper induction course run by a time served off road instructor can teach you how...
