If there are only two trains which are you on… 1. Peace Train https://lnkd.in/dR5nsdtC 2. Last Train to Nuremberg https://lnkd.in/dnTuBUAa

This was one of the most fun Job Task Analysis workshops I’ve had the opportunity to participate in, including boarding a cargo ship, riding it out 5 miles to anchor, and climbing down the pilot ladder onto a launch boat! Learned so much and left with a huge respect for marine pilots and the important (and sometimes dangerous) work they do. Excited to be able to support Washington State’s Marine Pilot Exam and Simulation Assessment efforts. #psychometrics #JTA #jobanalysis #assessment #pilotage

This is called a Drive-by Comment. This type of comment is stupid and has zero value. There's nothing in the comment that would make anyone pause and say, "Hey, maybe he's right" because there's no citation of standard. My reply is below. Explain why. You can't explain why because you are unaware that remains travel feet-first. On a ship, the casket would be sent over the side going feet-first, the flag would be held exactly like this because the canton must be at the head over the left shoulder. Just because this is an urn doesn't make a difference. This is how the flag is positioned every single time for a burial at sea. These Sailors are #pallbearers #bodybearers #casketbearers - this is not a flag detsil. They are at Attention aboard a ship, that's why their feet are separated holding the flag over the urn at tabletop. If their heels were together, they would fall over because of the waves. 👍I don't mind anyone forming an argument completely or partially against what I post, but it needs to reference published standards. I'm open to learning, but many others are not. Argument for its own sake is a waste of time. #DrillMasterBurialAtSea #DrivebyComment 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

16 February 2009… the day I swore my oath to Queen and country and embarked on my life changing endeavour of training at Commando Training Centre Royal Marines I can hear the distant echoing voices declaring “sprog!!” as I type, but anyway… A couple of reflections of lessons learnt 15 years on that I believe apply well to all walks of life 1) Have your own WHY The young man in the phot below had a clear vision of what he wanted and where he was headed This is vital to maintaining perspective in life The journey will evolve and that is to be expected but having a North Star keeps you on track, especially when life puts us face first in boggy ground. Keeps you grounded during good times too 2) Choose wisely your supporting cast in life People enter and exit our lives but having trusted oppos, loving family, an evolving network (not just in career change mode) are key Get mentors that align with your values too. That’s massive and links to the next point… 3) Don’t be the smartest person in the room Lacking relevant knowledge of important practical issues in life wastes time, saps energy and money. It certainly adds to life’s challenges Tap into insights of others who know. They are key to understanding HOW 4) I have always been serious about my endeavours. This helps achieve goals but remember to enjoy it too It is not a dress rehearsal. Life is happening all of the time, don’t take it for granted So crack on but I should have taken a few more phots along the way so I don’t have to rely on one like this to illustrate a thought! Plus it will be good to reflect on WHAT we did along the way…

How to ace the Marine Basic Recon Course

If you sell into the fire apparatus industry, I highly encourage you to subscribe to Paul Darley's bi-monthly reports. There's lots of insight on trends in the fire apparatus space, including current lead times on new fire apparatus (some OEMs are forecasting 4+ year delivery times!). This beneficial information can help with your team's overall strategic planning and forecasting. #Darley

ALGERIA 🇩🇿 AIRSPACE IS THE ROUTE YO NIGER

#tactics #choreography #precision #upeepz #paf #strike #mission #perfection Philippine Air Force (PAF) in the 2024 Australian PITCH BLACK Air Exercise The PAF is ramping up training as they prepare to acquire 20 or more multi-role fighter jets (Reuters, 20 July 2024 article by Kristy Needham). Little is known about the PAF tactics, techniques and procedures (TTP). I am still waiting for more info (visuals and reviews from other participants) about their art of executing strike missions. One thing known about Filipinos is they strive for perfection to execute precision and synchronicity. The PAF brought four Korean-built FA-50 to the 2024 PITCH BLACK exercise. Can you imagine augmenting their force with a combination of F-15EX (with jammers) and the F-35 (stealth)? They would come up with a TTP that is well coordinated with precision and synchronicity. If you liken choreography with tactical superiority, just look at the UPeepz performance at Body Rock Asia 2023. You will get an idea how the PAF will plan and execute their strike packages with the FA-50 fighters. *Choreography is applicable to the formation of tactics by understanding the hostile forces capabilities (ISR and weapons employment) to find their vulnerabilities and evaluate ones strengths and weaknesses. By doing so, one can "choreograph" the application of one's strengths to exploit the opposition vulnerabilities. And tailor the TTP to minimize exposure of ones weaknesses. The Philippines don't have the same resources of a major power to build a "gorilla package" to strike targets the way the U.S. Air Force can. [See Package Q Strike (Desert Storm) under Comments section]. Big question: How will the allied forces integrate the strengths and tactics of the PAF in combined air forces operations? And how do you prevent "friendly fire" when your allies have no or a different "identification friend or foe?" Something to think about in future combined air exercises.
