... but they haven't told us what it is yet,... but nobody knows for sure yet.
"we're changing the wheels on the bus while its moving" ... gotta love being the guinea pig, and having every test jacked up in some manner or another. hopefully it was corrected for bravo and beyond.
Considering how I've done a TRUEX in the Norfolk area, that's a mighty lofty goal for a bunch of TBS students... Especially considering all the shipping in the area. We didn't do a single "amphibious landing" in the Norfolk area, there is good training to be had (convoy ops, mechanized assault, etc...) all in an urban environment. But a full-fledged amphibious assault? I'll believe it when I see it. I'd envision more of a ship/LCAC fam period, tied into some other sort of training...I'm in Echo, and as of right now FEX IV is cancelled. Apparently it is being replaced by some training event in Norfolk, but they haven't told us what it is yet, or even if it's a sure thing. The rumor is that it's an amphibious landing, but nobody knows for sure yet.

FEX IV is nothing more than haze X. You will walk around for miles and miles through woods, half the time at night and have no idea where you're going or when you'll get there. You may be Plt CMDR for the whole week or may get to be GP, which is nice. Only good advice, bring alot of beef jerky, hope the weather is nice, and DON'T GET ROLLED.
So it really does end?
Hmm, I remember being told that we did the last one ever. I guess they changed their mind. Bastards.On a positive note, we just had the "Road to War" brief and the last and final FEX 4 for a TBS company (EVER) is only two days long, or "48 hours of continuing actions" as they put it.
