I really hate to say this, news like this, families will not find closure. Have seen many of this kind of accidents

the family get torn to shreds, I really pity them, bring up a son for so many years and the poor guy ends up...

every time I hear such news, it rips a part of me, and reminds me of the days when I was active and saw

such things happening, and attended the funerals as well. Even to this day, after close to 25yrs out from service,

I cannot forget those who left prematurely. Never will there be closure, not to family, relatives and friends.

i second that! young man with future in front. Every parents wants to see their children grow up get married and start a family. While some parents try to make their sons cheat on their duty this parents have to bear the burden of having lost their own while serving and yrs of love and sacrifice gone!

my friend too... his team took easy way, walk in the river itself.... slipped on the mini waterfall rocks and broke his arm... lucky got clear land nearby... if not i dunno how he want to walk out

my unit the carrier fall down whilst the body was being hauled up to the chopper. Body oso followed the carrier and got stuck under the roots of a tree. If not for the tree the body would have fallen off Mt Biang! [shakehead][shakehead]

Not to cast aversion....but the 200m distance seems 'near' and does not justify the length of time and effort needed to locate the body as reported.

 

depends on how many tributaries there are i guess.

If you never serve NS or even join a military operation or exercise in dense vegetation, just STFU and don't acting like a smart alec... Searching for someone in dense vegetation is not a walk in the park consider the conditions or the area and the time he's found.

 

My condolense to the deceased and his family.

Ok they are searching also in the dense vegetation. My bad, that explains the difficulties.

I had the misconception that they were searching in the rivers only.

the one i use in the boat i attached to is the DIY blow job type. don't think it is SOLAS.. in fact, quite koyak when they handed it to me.

perhaps they keep the best to themselves and give the lousy ones to soldiers attached from elsewhere?

 

I was a boatman in army like the deceased. As I said, he's using the type that u need to pull the tab to inflate. Passengers use the same yellow/green life jacket but no gas canister. So u have to blow first and keep it on throughout the journey.

 

No auto inflate expensive types for us. Maybe from now on they will change all. Army works like that anyway. Changes made only after unfortunate incidents.
