Testing The Limits of

The leadership skills of Australian Army trainee officers from the Royal Military College - Duntroon were put to the test in Exercise Shaggy Ridge at the Majura Training Area.
The exercise is well known as one of the toughest tests of physical and mental strength for trainee officers - testing their ability to make ethical decisions under stress and fatigue.

[@alexlanning712]

I'm glad I never got conscripted, or joined the army, because I found out I'm color confused, and not only that, I never had the physical stamina

Holding a MAG58 does get pretty heavy after a while.

[@myronallen3010]

Get one of those 3 point harness, they're awesome.
Fire and movement at night with white light though??

[@Genguman7430]

Yeah, the white light had me a little confused. Would have thought they would be using Nods or red light but oh well. I'll be sure to get a 3-point harness too, cheers!@@myronallen3010

[@thommo6331]

What is the go with white light head lights?
Never would have been allowed in my day yet we still did lots of night exercises.
I thought we had NVG etc nowadays.
Someone please explain.

[@PBMS123]

Might not have access for that many NVGs and PEQs so they're likely simulating NVGs with the white headlights in lieu of it.

[@flowerpower8722]

May not be for that exercise, but I know they have to get BYO headlamps when they sign up.

[@M77982]

Don't end up like the CDF

[@lukeskywalker3329]

And when finished for the day .
They put on the stilletos and wigs to let their hair down in drag . If they are not conducting a priscilla show in drag on their tanks . Tradition has continued since the 90's under former minister in the Howard government.
