Depends where you are working doesn't it?

I imagine it'll be pretty tough, like the rest of Aki.

Was on it back in March and a bit of April...We used the sh1tty transit blocks but there was more there than I should imagine now...after a while better rooms came up and you were moved into them...With the reduced numbers I should imagine you should move straight into something pretty decent first off...We stood up and worked out of the old APC buildings quite a distance from the messes and accom so wheels or a healthy walk for your 3 squares a day. There was some ridiculous and underhanded switch to field conditions during my time carried out in a typically spineless fashion so your meals are free but you get nothing in the order of other allowances...anybody else out there on det sitting next to you in the mess will be but you aren't...The food in the mess I thought was of a godd standard and plenty of it...Not sure if you can drink on the op but if you can it's Aki so fill your boots...rugby club was reasonable after about 2130.
