Comms Checkby ~arkady001

Photography / Photojournalism / Military

OC's Comms Group - Training Exercise, Copehill Down, Salisbury Plain - 1998

Is that a camera the guy on the right is holding ?
Looks like a strange little device.
I'm not even sure he's holding it.

It's a laser projector - part of the DefWes kit, similar to the American SAWES package. Recievers on a harness worn by the soldiers tell them when they're being shot at and if they've been hit - a computer then estimates the type of wound likely to have been recieved so that Medics can carry out thier training also.

Bloody hell, that's quite amazing. Never heard of anything like that before.
Not much info on the web apparanly. That's one hell of an advanced system though.
I'm impressed...

"Sarge, I think mine's broken Sarge..."
"Have you tried turning it on soldier?"

"It's a barren, desolate wilderness, Sergeant..."
"Turn the map over, sir..."
