Reacher.
All points taken.
Mine is one for the "higher up" echelon that seem to need remind about the possibility of tragic events coming on us with or without notice.
For example in my days at Willitown the SAR Huey crew[s] were always on immediate recall and would spend their time at the base. We rescued a crew from a container ship [Sigma] on a Sunday afternoon as she was blown off her anchor into the beach. In Townsville 35 Sqn had a SAR callout for both Caribou and Hueys right through the period. At Nowra when I was there we had flash floods and helos airborne within a couple of hours but that was 30 years ago....
I will never criticise the boys and girls on the front line rather the opposite my point is resourcing and organising....
