AIRSOFT PACIFIC: SERE
Survive – Evade – Resist – Escape

AP SERE is designed to be a free training / Mil-Sim event that spans from a Friday evening to Sunday evening. This is not a competition; it is for team building and an opportunity for a mil-sim experience. Teams decide when and where they would like to hold the event, and invite the rest of the AP community to participate as OPFOR. Hosting teams will receive an AP SERE patch upon completion ($2.99/each).
Team Rules:
Teams of 6 or more may fill out the attached form with the required information to hold their SERE event.
In order to participate, you must commit to return as OPFOR for another teams event.
Team member bust be 18 or older, or accompanied by a legal guardian. Teams should submit the form to info@airsoftpacific.com at least 30 days before the event. AP staff will create the event on the AirsoftPacific.com calendar.
The team will choose from the available areas and AP staff will choose a start point and end point. The team can choose the start and end dates/times.
The team will deploy at the given start point at the chosen time and begin their mission. The team will need to provide their own transportation and have a vehicle at or near their end point.

Hits:
You do not die in training. If you are wounded (arm and leg hits) your team needs to stop and field dress the wound before you can move or fight. If you are mortally wounded you should die in place, and re-spawn back to your team when it does not interfere with the game-play. If the entire team is eliminated, they should wave red dead rags and displace 100-200 yards beyond the combat area.
