PMs, Manuals, Gadgets

Hi All

First an addendum to the PM schedule. We will be having a training session on tentage and layout practice as well as another on gadgets.

Samuel Swee has kindly provided me with several manuals developed by him ,however, they happen to have a  picture of an Orca on the front.

Manuals included are Signalling, Knots(incomplete, you can ask ME for a manual instead) Cloud Forms(full colour) and Survival.

Email or tag if you want one.

Also, I will be visiting the Army Market for supplies this Friday. Those interested are welcome to follow. I will not buy anything for anyone (not made of money you know)
