During the escape exercises something went wrong and TLG1 R. Kösters and MATR1 Offermans ended up in the hospital. Offermans had to go to the decompression chamber, and since there was only one available (the second chamber was not functioning) the exercises had to be broken off. (Photo: © Ron Kösters).
