It took a pg for this to pop up So that will mean a delay of 6 hrs for the rest due to a return trip Left around 11 am / 6 hrs in = 5 pm / 5 hrs out = around 10 pm not forgetting set up time & comforting them for journey out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they all emerge safely I won't care if we lose. Hats off to everyone involved including the unsung support network humping cylinders & the chefs keeping everyone fed.

Kohsamida Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 As sad as this situation is, it is an incredible example of people from all around the world coming together for a common cause. It says a lot about people's innate "goodness" when you strip away geo-politcal & religious ideology. It also says a lot about bravery, not only of these boys, many of whom can not even swim, let alone dive with gear, but of course with the rescuers, one of whom has already given his life to the rescue effort.

abrahamzvi Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 1 hour ago, Jonathan Fairfield said: Rescue operation to extract cave survivors has begun Divers have begun an operation to try to extract the 13 survivors out of Tham Luang cave, chief of the rescue mission Narongsak Osotthanakorn announced at 10.30 am this morning. “Today is D-Day,” he said, adding that 13 international cave divers and 5 Navy SEAL members have gone into the cave to bring out the survivors. He said the rescue operation began at 10.00 am and the survivors will be brought out in what is known as a “buddy dive” in which each of the survivors will be escorted by two rescue divers. He told a news briefing that the first survivor should be brought out by 9 pm tonight. Full story: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/rescue-operation-extract-cave-survivors-begun/ -- © Copyright Thai PBS 2018-07-08 I am praying to the ALMIGHTY for the safety of the boys, their coach and all the rescuer. God please help them all to go through this ordeal safely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannarebirth Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 4 minutes ago, AlexRich said: Quote from the Guardian live feed ... looks like 5 Thai Navy Seals plus the best international cave divers ... the kids are in the best hands and appear keen to go. "The governor has said that the 13 international divers who will go in to the cave to rescue the boys are “all stars.” “And we selected five of our best who can work with them,” he said. It was previously reported that having Thai-speaking divers whom the boys have a bond with was going to be key to the rescue operation". I'm going to include this outgoing Chiang Rai governor as an "all star" as well. What a sick irony that he has been demoted to a smaller province because he is so much more honest and competent than TPTB would wish for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunolem Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Update: 18 of the best foreign cave divers are inside, one per child. From chamber 3, it is now walkable all the way out.

Sheryl Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 “I can confirm the 13 survivors are more than ready, physically and mentally. They’re determined and well aware of the evacuation procedures. Everyone is ready to come home with us, no matter what they have to face,” Narongsak told reporters. Their families had been informed of the plan before the evacuation began and agreed with the authorities’ decision. According to authorities, rescuers could take two to three days to bring out the boys and their coach, depending on the weather and water levels inside the cave complex. The operation will continue until all the 13 survivors are safely brought out. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asia/thailand-cave-rescue-as-operation-tham-luang-10509950 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He recognises that this is a task that requires the best people involved, irrespective of where they come from, and he's putting the interests of the kids first and foremost. Who would want to be the decision maker on this? I hope he gets much praise when this ends successfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably more than that, I'd expect them to assign coordinators/managers to every bottleneck. Making sure resources such as light, guide ropes, spare tanks, drugs, food and drink remain available and avoiding having more than one team at a time in each critical passage.

I don't think prayers and expressing other positive feelings are "nonsense" but try CNN International; they are transmitting intermittent live feeds from Mae Sai, and seem to be providing responsible coverage for English followers.
