Tonight at 6pm (1800 hours) we drew our weapons from the arms room--permanently. We will have our weapons with us for all training until we leave. And it makes everything we do some part of weapons training. Because if it rains, our weapon gets wet along with us. And we have to clean them. The smart soldiers clean their weapons THEN themselves. I hope that neither me nor any member of my team is the first one to forget, misplace, or God Forbid, lose their weapon.
Veteran of four wars, four enlistments, four branches: Air Force, Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard. I am both an AF (Air Force) veteran and as Veteran AF (As Fuck)

Weapons 24/7
In my room with my M16A4. We just pulled out all of our field equipment for a platoon inspection.

ReplyDeleteLump--Formula 1 (world driving championship) engineers call the $10 million engines in their $50 million cars lumps because they are necessary, but limit weight distribution in the car--something like what will happen to us when we are carrying loaded weapons.
