Above: 0530h ASEME Recall!

The first iteration of Army School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering’s NEW Field Training Exercise has begun! 

This morning, trainees were recalled to the parade ground at Latchford Barracks as the Advance Party shift to 3hrs notice to move (NTM), prior to their pending deployment to Puckapunyal on the Soldier Skills Block (SSB). The SSB is part of trainees’ continued education in foundation warfighting.

NTM and battle procedure is part of ASEME’s messaging to the trainees - both tactical and technical skills are essential parts of their training before entering the trained force, all part and parcel of Australian Army’s  Land Domain Training System.

Trainees and staff alike at the Army School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering have been preparing for the new Field Training Exercise for well over a month now…

EXERCISE WAR HORSE  tests not only trainees but staff at all levels.

Here, ALPHA Company Officer Commanding Major Buchan delivered Company (COY) orders on 16 October, one week prior to deployment.

The COY then transitioned to 72hrs notice to move (NTM), triggering battle procedure to ready them for deployment.

The COY has since moved to 24hrs NTM pending recall for deployment.

Army Logistic Training Centre’s Human Factors Cell held a Resilience Training Day mid-year for Army School of Logistic Operations’ Logistics Officer Basic Course (LOBC) – 40 of Army’s newest leaders. The day was split into three activities; stress response training in the Latchford Barracks pool, a team raft building and problem solving activity, and multiple dry-land problem solving and fitness games. The course follows the Experiential Learning Cycle, aiming to develop teamwork, communication, leadership and stress management.

Hi-vis definitely draws attention - in this case to mental health among tradies!

Armament and Construction Wing recently raised over $1600 for TIACS (free counselling service for blue collar community) by holding a “Hi-Vis Day.” Leading Aircraftman Adam David curated a simple but highly effective event for 130 attendees to come together, have a sausage (critical) and give mental health some air time.

With depression and anxiety the most common illnesses in Australia, perhaps an event like this should be held in your workplace?
