Exercise Chiltern Kite 2012



Fg Off Lis Foster
As far as Ops Flt is concerned I think Chiltern Kite (CK) 2012 was a great opportunity for everyone to undertake a selection of Ops and FP training. Despite the cold weather – and those buildings in Imber village seemed to give off a really cold dampness – everyone seemed to have a good time.
Many thanks to Cpl Les Birch and SAC Stu Taylor for the excellent Ops Exercise that ran on the Saturday. It was obvious that a lot of work had gone into it and hopefully there will be further opportunities to continue with that throughout the year and into the future. Those of us who didn’t get to work with the helicopters were able to have some fun on vehicle patrols. My own experience of top cover proved to be very exciting with the chance to fire plenty of rounds at the ‘enemy.’
As usual the food provided by the field catering team was outstanding. Who could have believed we’d be eating roast lamb and fruit crumble and custard on the Saturday evening!
On behalf of everyone on Ops Flt I’d like to thank all those who spent many hours, days and months organising such a fantastic weekend.
