I remember helping 12C build a bridge before, that was very stressful and laborious. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to have to build a bridge under enemy fire.

They would use 12b to cover them the whole time 😎

The weapons ain't going nowhere, they don't have a bridge to cross 😁

Anyones recently in 12C. Im scheduling my MEPs here soon and was curious what it was like now. I would love 12N more, but sadly isnt available right now, thought jobs do come and go
