About “Civil War” tweeters.
If you’ve never had a Round whizz past your ear...or had 100’s of rounds whizzing in front of your face on a flanking team, been too close to the back blast of a claymore mine or found a tripwire at night...with your foot. You’re not ready for it! 😂🤬
Yes.. I Have and yes I did find a Tripwire at night with my foot, and halted my Squad, then called each one over at a time to slowly feel down my boot and got them over to safety.
Not bragging... I’m saying as a soldier you reach a level of training where magic happens.
I’ve seen sergeants tremble while checking our gear before live fire “exercise”, and I lost a little respect for them... it was only practice! 🤯🤷‍♂️
The reality of being “danger close” behind the back blast of a claymore mine, hits you when your eyeballs and Testicles...
Get sucked into their respective sockets, and you’re stunned unconscious for about 3 seconds, then expected to fire in the ambush, dazed and confused. It’s not a joke... it takes training. Omg and emotions... you can’t have any. You have a job to do.
TRAINING! 😉
You can’t just buy an AR, go to the firing range a few times and all of a sudden you’re able to “safely” clear a building... MOUT training is intense.
You have to learn about things like “cover” and moving as a team. Camouflage, scouting etc.
How long have you been without food and water?
It’s fine when your sedentary but it’s more difficult when you have to walk 10 miles with all your gear when you haven’t eaten in a day or 2, and that’s a short walk! 20 miles is average.. jus sayin super soldier. Talk is cheap.
