For some of our tt exercises we have in the past. You can only do so much stuff on a table. =p

As far as the MARES drill I would believe it's in April, as the air show is in the beginning of May.

Be a good weekend to be listening to the OAFB system and scanning amongst a few other things. Always a good time to find new TGs and how they patch things together.

How I miss the words Excercise, Excercise, Excercise, over the giant voice system (base PA). The talkgroup for that is 19.

lol I'll see if I can get it on tape for you then.

I wish more times than not they wouldn't say that, or even over the radio. Get people in the real mood and live for the action.

If the base is doing any exercise they have to say exercise. This is Air Force wide. I believe it is an AFI.

The one announcement I don't miss is Exercise exercise exercise this is the base command post alarm red mopp level four. That one just sucks especially when you are in southern Georgia in the middle of the summer, talking about sweating your balls off.

Were exercises pretty regular thing for you then?

Seems like I don't hear it nearly as much as I thought I ever would.
