EQUIPMENT Each post will be equipped with a high-powered tactical flashlight that will produce a visible beam. These will be distributed to each person / post upon arrival.
On / Off Switch press button down firmly to toggle
Actions Each post will perform a series of flashlight actions in unison that will accompany my dialogue as I’m speaking to el. I will provide the script once its finalized. Although we will be relatively close in proximity, it may be difficult hearing me speak, however- don’t worry- all you’ll have to do is mimic the actions of the point person at the 12 o’ clock position. 12
