The webbing system is still in use. Try fitting 1000 rnds of c9 ammo in the TV. In roto 01-06 i brought my webbing, used it for a bit then bought a chest rig from the Black Ops store in KAF. There was no way i could have used the TV as a c9 gunner on my tour. :salute:
I know exactly who you are talking about, thats actually why im asking he got his a while back same with a guy im working with out here in borden. I just wasnt sure if they still did that
by me saying "junk" i mean one round and the structural integrity has been sacrificed and the plate will no longer stop rounds. Compare our plates to the plate demos on the link i previously posted.
On the topic of body armor......
As anyone in the combat arms knows, the ballistic plates we get issued are junk. but check this guys stuff out
www.inventortroy.com
now that stuff would be very helpfull in the sand box, and im sure would save alot of lives.
I tried to wear ear plugs they issued to us when i was employed as a turret gunner in a gun truck but after a while i just tossed them. The mouth guard is a nice touch tho, smart idea. :salute:
The biggest issue with hearing protection, is when on the ground yes you have a PRR so in that ear protection is irrelevant. As for the other ear unless you have those super expensive electronic sound dampeners its difficult to hear any situational orders that are not being transmitted over...
Your best bet would be going Vehicle Tech. As long as the army sees fit to accept your education you'd get your Cpls after completion of BMQ. You could get attatched to an infantry battalion but you'd obviously be doing vehicle tech stuff opposed to infantry stuff.
The "gunfighter program" as they call it these days, i found was a not too bad training tool. I found the program taught a far better method of quickly engaging targets then i ever learned in sq or biq.
wow thanks alot man that was really helpfull. i've never been to borden but i doubt itll be worse then spending the winter in wainwright or shilo lol ;D
plus.............. if your rolling with the ANP dont expect them to do anything short of retreat and give the enemy more of a vantage point on your position.
