Absolutely right, rely on your bones! I used to do that in wrestling sometimes to ‘cheat’ when we had to do the same.

Oh man, that takes me back.

Defending the Logan River valley as the ‘Musorian’ 911 Motor Rifle Regt advanced towards Brisbane was a staple of numerous Command Post TEWTs I did as part of my Int training.

Footnotes:

1. A TEWT or Tactical Exercise Without Troops was conducted in the field so you could observe the actual terrain but all the supporting forces and enemy were ‘pretend’. Commonly, and more frequently, referred to as a PENIS (Practical Exercise Not Involving Soldiers)… because you knew that you were going to get dicked around by the Directing Staff.

2. Musorian. Refers to the Musorian Armed Forces, a fictitious notional training enemy used by the Australian Army for training purposes between 1980 and 2018. The doctrine, introduced in 1980 as MLW 3-2-2, depicted a country named Musoria and its military forces, incorporating a mix of Soviet and CHICOM tactics. This training adversary was replaced by the Decisive Action Training Environment (DATE) in 2018

When Tirpitz was attacked here in Tromsø, she defended herself with AAA. They say the ground was littered with shrapnel from the airbursts and kids ran around collecting it.
