'Fire Mission'
Your mortar squad is broken down into pairs, one person carries the ammo (20lb med ball) the other carries the base plate (45lb plate), you can swap as often as you like (don't worry about the tubes some other team has them). Your mission is to suppress an objective to allow a company attack. There are some other details of the mission but you kind of tune out during the briefing because you just want to know how far you have to haul heavy stuff. In 35 minutes you need to:
Move more than a mile with your equipment to your firing point (point A),
Then
Conduct the fire mission as a pair of two rounds for time:
- Guy with plate, lunge walk 80 metres with the plate overhead (between the portable toilet and the Hastings house sign)
- Guy with the med ball sprint the 80 meters and at the Hastings house sign do med ball cleans until the guy with the plate arrives
- walk 80 meters as a pair back down the hill to the porta john and swap equipment if you like
Then extract via same route (tactically unsound I know). Your transport leaves at
H + 35.
IF you return to base after
H+35 you will find it has been overrun. You are to abandon your equipment and
swim 400m across a nearby river to an RV with the quick reaction force.
No BS points:
- yes you are swimming if you don't make the 35 minute cutoff( we have three lanes reserved)
- wear your shiny belt when running
- it is the pair's responsibility to navigate to the firing point if they choose to use routes other than that marked then so be it.
- If pairs don't work then go as a trio(one base plate- two ammo balls), if there is only one of you take the med ball and use it for both cleans and lunge walk).
- no, there isn't a bad weather plan, come prepared.
