War Zone !!!!

[skratt]

Machine Guns, explosions, .... rattaatatattatt .... kabooom .... going on all night from 8pm till midnight.
At one point I thought they were aiming at the van it was so loud. Now they are at it again this morning. More loud explosions and gun fire.
Have I parked for the night in a War Zone ? No Im on Purbeck Hills above Lulworth firing range in Dorset and did't realise they were going to practice for armageddon !!!! DUH ...

I have been there but not in the comfort of my van I was running around in the rain and mud doing some pre-deployment training. we have the protection of ear deffenders when on the range and it's V noisey.

But an esential part of the training.

Squibby.

Ear defenders? It has finaly got through to them then? that loud noises make one deaf.

hi dt. when were you in. i was given ear defenders as part of basic kit back in january 72.little pink plugs . i know they were being used before that as we had them as cadets .
if you were caused deafness while in the forces you can claim for it. there is a system available to you.
cheers alan.
