Instructions

Break into patrols and learn either morse code or semaphore, phonetics
After each patrol has had time to learn the basics start sending a simple message to each other (the leader to choose).
After each patrol has sent and received a message swap the communication types and try again

The last exercise is to use all types of communication to send a message round all the patrols in a large game of Chinese Whispers
