Day 69: Creating a Scrapheap

It was Wednesday, so we started our day with dress outs. One little twist was added. We had to surrender half of the gym. Due to a class, all thirty of us were crammed on one side. I somehow ended up in the dead center of Bat. B. No worries, even amongst strangers, we still managed to pick up two wins. Because of the class, we were kicked out of the gym.

After a little break, we headed outside to prepare for our day of extrication. We loaded up our two squad trucks (with wood and cribbing) and headed out to the drill ground. There we flipped two cars...one on its side and the other on its roof. We spent the rest of the day practicing our stabilization skills. We also got to disassemble the vehicles using hand tools and the group I was in got to use a reciprocating saw to cut a trunk in half.

A fun day...tomorrow we bring out the big guns and really start cutting up some vehicles....
