I was in XV 181 at Akrotiri at night ready to set off for Jubail when ops told us to shut up shop and come back for a briefing. Did not go that night but went the next day. Had a Scud alert at Jubail and we hid under a bulldozer. The alert was for real but it luckily fell harmlessly elsewhere. Biggest danger for us Truckies was the many transponder code changes and the liklehood of friendly fire. Oh and a midair due to the traffic.
