I dont think its possible for Berget-Events to pay the commanders on lower levels as squad, platoon och Batalion command... But with that said I think that a partial payback on your ticket fee and maybe a free ticket to the beerparty would be a nice guesture...??? What U get should be directly connected to what U have to give up in terms of airsofting...
For instance, the platoon commander will at least be in the field and the battalion commander will most likly not...(much anyway)
There are alot of great guys out there that has done a voulantary job over the years and they will hopefully be replaced by new players in coming years BUT...
Since commanders on all levels can (as the case in Berget 6) make or break the game for alot of people they should be chosen on recomendation or merit from erlier games and rewarded for their work...at least with the gesture of a free Ticket to the beerparty or maybe a recomendation paper stating their skills from Berget crew...
Thats my pennys worth on that issue...
I also want to add one thing about commanding... First of all... The people U command have to be briefed in your way of leading... This will make misunderstandings less and help to get peoaple to follow your orders in HOT situations. Also make sure U have a good idea of just how hardcore your players are... Talk to them OFF GAME and state a pace before the game begins...
Ive had good and bad commanders during my years with Berget BUT Ive also had good and bad followers...
What I mean is ... Not everybody going to Berget is ready to take orders but wants to just muck around instead...And frankly u cant do anyting about it if it happens... Just concentrate on the teamplayers left and make sure they have as good game as possible...
Thats more then a few pennys worth but anyway...
Want to just take the time and thank
UN Commander Berget 4,
NATO Command (NOT Rock but rather Chris Saw that made everything work) Berget 5
and last but not least Brujho, NATO Commander Berget 6 for their extensive effort to make sure we all have fun...
BIG THANK U
