Missed this - went back & had a listen on the archives. The order for tomorrow: 6 DIVS, 9 type 3 strike teams (atleast 6 of those need to be agency incase they can’t fill the DIVS order), 10 gulf strike teams. When asked if they needed dozers or tenders, the answer was along the lines of ‘we’ve ordered enough privates to suffice already’.
