Semaphores

Hello crew officers and members,

On February 25, 2007, I will be testing all of you on the basic concept of Semaphores. You will be divide into two teams competing against each other to identify the signal of sending and receiving giving by your Advisors and Associate Advisors. I will be posting the Semaphores sheet in the Yahoo Group labeling Signaling Semaphores.

REQUIRE ALL RESPONSE FROM MEMBERS:
1. What is Semaphore? Why do we learn it?

Sincerely,

Tony
Crew Advisor

Hello =] Ok so this is creating some confusion for me... such as where do i click to leave a blog... and for the morse code and the semaphore... do you want us to look those up.

Truong Hoang, I'd also like you to post up our fundraising assignments on to here the blogsite so we can divide it among us. That would be great thank you.

Sincerely,

Bao

Simply put, semaphore is a form of communication. It is very useful if you do not have any other form to communicate. You can simply use your arms. In certain circumstance such as daylight, or no whistle, you use semaphore... However if you have flashlight it's either morse code or it could semaphore in the dark. That is why we use semaphore, in case we're in danger or in case we need to communicate without a proper or modern form of communication. =] This form of communication should be introduced as an example in the communications merit badge. There you go tony. =]

BAO, sorry for your confusion.
At this time, only truong Thien and I can post blogs for announcement, communication, and activities reporting purpose only, but everyone can comment.

Send us the content of your blog via email, and if it's proper and neccessary, we will post it for you, as I just posted for Alex and Andrew re. Learning Morse code.

We will not use this blogsite to discuss the confidential issues that must be communicated via emails only. This blogsite is open worldwide to everyone.

TINA, We encourage everybody to googling or yahooing for researching additional information to truong Thien's question "What is semaphore?", and of course, he will conduct the Semaphores training.
