What the hell is BST time...?

Please excuse my friend, he lives in the country you know, a sort of yokel like... maybe even near the sea between longitudes 7.5° East and 22.5° East where they get, sort of, a bit time muddled.

BST = British Summer Time = GMT + 1 = UTC + 1 zulu time + 1 or in truth, Alpha Time

Confirmed.

We also know that the convoy cannot move until a fuel truck arrives on Wednesday night. We still believe the original schedule will be met. Expect convoy (Pic 1) to move off from the staging area (Pic 2) at 20.00 on Thursday night.

Orders

Phase 1

1. Locate convoy with our French attachment (Gazelle) Once located shadow reporting position. Advise Mission Commander regarding suitable ambush site
2. Bravo slicks fly North to staging area. Once convoy located Bravo will insert Ukrainian Anti Armor troops in a position to ambush the convoy and return to staging area to pick up another load of troops
3. Delta Co. gunships protect slicks at all times
4. Use HOT 3 missiles (2 available) for AAA threats located in convoy. Synchronize attack with ambushing forces

Phase 2
1. D Company attack enemy staging area with rocket and minigun and prep LZ for B company slicks for clearance team insertion
2. Exfil troops
3. RTB

I am in for slick duty.

Edit: BTW, it is good to see D-company changed its color to grey. The former color wasn't very masculine to say the least

Sorry. I will not be able to join... But Gizzy and Froggy will take care of the armor.

Froggy won't, he'll be at work

I really enjoyed myself last night. Good flying and good fun, thanks I have some footage I will edit and upload when time permits.

Shame we only have 1 slick left, hope another boat arrives with spares for next mission or you'll be left spectating or driving trucks

Sorry guys, i overslept.

Nooooooooo, anything but a Latrine duty
