Of Mechanical and Physical wear and tear...

How easy is the wear and tear of our 5-ton MAN Trucks and Landrovers?? Out of 5 Man Trucks my unit has, 1 is at the maintainence base undergoing repairs and 1 has recently attained VOR (Vehicle On Repair) status.. The problem is they seem to suddenly have problems. We did maintainence on one tonner and washed it only for it to have problems starting the next day!! We have only 1 working landrover as of friday. Another spectacularly overheated due to mechanical problems on its way back to the MT line..

Now we have stop movement of vehicles for Self-practice until replacement vehicles come, or the vehicles are repaired.. it was only last week that we could only do self-practice on alternate days to reduce normal wear and tear..

Soon OC will pump up the intensity of training leading up to the next Ops, starting by deployment tommorrow, which is suppossed to be my off.. nvm at least i had my off on fri..

HUA!
