Pretty much locked into the same, so secure the border, secure as much of East Timor, it's quite large but and that's why my OCD decided to have a separate AO, area of operations. Normally we do work intrinsically with the infantry in support of each other. This time we didn't. He wanted to have his own area of operations and it was quite hard because not only do we maintain armoured vehicles, which is a constant thing we have to do, but also we do the patrol as well.
So it's quite taxing on my drivers to be doing the work in armoured vehicles all day and night and then also patrol, dismount and do vehicle checkpoints as infantry in support of that. So it was quite taxing in that realm in regards to working on our own independently from the infantry … armoured personnel carriers, a driver and a crew commander, and we had seven vehicles that we'd split up in four or three and then go off and do tasks and border checkpoints and border patrol.
