Come the day of the race, in a real war/conflict/fight/disagreement, buildings have "target" written on them, so I'm quite happy to continue FOBing for the practice.
I suppose it is the same reason we dont wear our wings on dpm - it defeats the purpose. So why exercise without an inkling of realism? Hotels are all well and good, but can we always count on HNS and hard accom? I dont think so. So, please, enough of the "I dont need to live in a tent and I dont want to" comments. It makes us all look childish, spoilt and inneffective at what we do, or are supposed to do. Any civvies reading this thread must wonder what the hell they are spending their tax money on. So, forgive me if I don't join the ranks of the hotel lovers who are quite vociferous upon this thread. It's a stick I don't want to be tarred with and an immpression I don't want to give to the public.
