I wonder if the insubstantial Mr Joyce was an attempt by writers to remove any suspicion that there was indeed a sexual element in the choice of term. Some writers on word history have certainly claimed that the shape of the stick and its position between the (always male) pilotâs legs led to the term.
As the assault and support elements move into position, the security element keeps the patrol leader informed of all enemy action. It shoots only if detected or on the patrol leaderâs order. Once the assault starts, the security element prevents enemy entry into, or escape from, the objective area. When the assault is completed, the security element covers the withdrawal of the assault and support elements to the ORP.
Generally, in terms of reactive situations (i.e.: unexpected disruptions to service, or service improvements), IT Support Incidents are raised through an Issue tracking system. Typically, issues work their way through a Help desk and then flow through to the relevant technology area for resolution.
