                INDIVIDUAL SOLDIERS REQUIREMENTS

We will be buying food for the BBQ so we would like to collect £3 off everyone to help fund this. Also Johns parents have kindly agreed to the use of the cow shed (hay barn is out of bounds) so if you want to hunker down in there for the night your welcome to. alternativley there is plenty of camping space to pitch a tent.

Friday evenings venture to the local pub will be in uniform and if possible Class A for yanks and Battle dress for the Brits. If you dont own either then M42's or basic kits is great.

You wont need a weapon on the night but if you have one then bring it along. **OBVIOUSLY NO KNIFES**  Be aware that its a farm and there are a lot of dangers lurking including divets from cows so make sure you know how to handle your weapon when it gets dark (no pun intended).

You must be AFRA insured and each group must have insured themselves before hand.

Kit is up to the individual or group leaders.

**HEALTH AND SAFETY TALK WILL BE GIVEN PRIOR TO EVENT STARTING**

This is a massive area to battle within. We have given it a test run in the day and night and it will give you a taste of what it could have been like. There are cows in other fields, marshy wet lands, large unpassable hedgerows and in the night its very dark.
