Like, oh, I'm just a SIG, you know?

And he's like, why did you get called out to be the team leader?

And no one knew.

And it was very confusing.

And then...

So not only am I stressing about being on selection, I got tasked to do an infill.

So we're going to go just do a basic infill patrol out through Singleton to do a small task overnight to sort of shake out in our team.

And I had to deliver orders to my team.

I've never done a subject course.

I've just come out of ASD, never been field before other than Kapuka.

And I was giving orders to senior infantry recon dudes, including a captain in the infantry, who's now, I believe, like a major lieutenant colonel in second command.

Very, very senior dude.

And to his credit, I said to him, mate, how do you give orders?

Yeah.

On selection.

And to his credit, like instead of filling up his water bottles and doing his ammo, he was in the mess with me for a few hours showing me what SMIAC was.

Yeah, man.

This is my level of soldiering.

Shout out to him.

Yeah, absolute weapon.
