Building Bridges

As part of the M-Coy Training Programme we took the Recruits to Pembroke where they built a pioneering project planned by the directing staff

At Pembroke by the sea

The Project of choice was a bridge which all the Unit would have to cross.

Kyle, CZ and Ian practicing their knots, constructing one of the A-frames

The VSL showing the boys how to secure the anchor for the bridge

The A-Frames are up and the ropes are being tightened.

Abela is the first person to try out the SVS Bridge

Gerada has his go

Delia struggling to hold on
Corrieri doing his Commando Crawl
Debono crossing the mighty bridge
Peter thinks he's walking a tight rope

And last but not least, James' turn!
C'mon james you can do it!!

So there you have it, we built a bridge, crossed it and after that we even had time left to fool around on it. The RVSs got a good chance to practice their knotting coz in a couple of weeks time the've got to build their own project at Camp as part of their Gradex!
