I got told a funny story about that a while back with the fire one shot on the hour thing - new guy got turned around and didn't return to camp that night. Deal was if you got waylaid or something else fire a shot on the hour and someone would reply. No shots heard so everyone figured all was OK.
He turned up the next day around midday quite upset - no ammo left and quite pissed off that no one had fired a shot as agreed or come to try and find him. Huh? Didn't hear a thing...
Yeah, he'd gotten a bit panicky and forgotten to take his suppressor off! All worked out in the end, and lessons learned.
PLB's are an essential now, the only thing that goes with that is the number of people that put them in their pack and then take their pack off and go off on little side missions. Must stay with you I reckon!
