Recruit Kat Nottinbury
Having just finished posting up a few reports I sat down in the barracks and had a brief chat with Kat. This didn't last long however, and soon ma'am Melior was ordering us to the roof for a drill on Tactical Orders and a check of equipment.
To begin with she explained to us the order that the squads lined up in, scouts, arcanists, core members and then grenadiers.
Once this was understood we moved on to cover aspects of the Army's tactical orders. It began simple enough, with orders such as "company turn left" and "company about face" before moving onto "number off and sound off."
The equipment check followed, and while I had supplies of bandages and axes, I lacked a bedroll and a torch, both of which had been returned to Yew upon my retirement and none issued upon arrival in Cove. I'll sort some out later tonight.
