Our team went on a trip one time and we were required to do some construction that required heavy earth moving equipment.

We found some heavy equipment at the local SeeBee Detachment - but they didn't have any operators - dang, there's that operators word again. The Navy would drop the equipment off, give a short class on how they worked and pick them up when we were done.

Both 18C's informed me they didn't have any heavy equipment experience.

I told them I was the Team Sergeant not the 18C and they best get to it. They did - and did a right passable job of it.
