Yes, but all trade levels are to have MCSP completed before their next trade course. Or, that is how it was explained to me. I agree it is not an accurate poll.
The gear should be in Tan, Coyote Brown, or Digital Arid.....none of this silly green or CADPAT in the sand. Get a modular system from a high end company.....modular is adaptable to suit the mission as your role changes. (MOLLE is an almost universal system)
PM sent with my gear guy's contact...
My buddy is a medic carrying three hundred rounds of 5.56, 65 rounds of 9mm, smk grens and a 35lb med bag. He limited himself to that so he could work on cas. The TAG vest is MOLLE...My personally owned HSGI plate carrier can carry 420 round 5.56mm(14mags), 65 rounds 9mm 5 mags, extra...
I agree mags are not the only issue, considering my uncle survived Chinese human wave attacks in Korean at Kapyong in 1951. We really did not learn our lessons. BTW, haven't called him Daddy for over 20 years..... :D
I'm going to forward to any PMs I get on the subject to him as ammunition.
I not sure that is why I asked the question. I can't even broach an answer until I deployed into that current mission.
All I've heard is RUMINT. Most of the questions I want to ask will violate OPSEC (TTPs, evac times, med assets in specific FOBs). So, I am not asking those questions.
I...
I am putting together of anecdotal and TTP points for my Dad when he dines with our political boss again. Please feel free to PM me relevent AARs and TTPs to beef up the presentation about the TV and CF tacitical gear. My father is approaching this from within the Conservative Party: he has...
Got a good buddy in country running a TAG Molle plate carrier from One Shot Tactical. He is running, at least, ten mags primary and four to five mags secondary. The plate carrier worked better getting in and out o' vehicles for rapid dismount with all the necessary fighting gear. He is a...
Gotta a G17 3rd Gen, like it a lot. I've put lots of rounds through it and it keeps plugging holes in paper. The only stoppages I've had with it have been poor ammunition related. I've got the night sight from the factory, they worked quite well during low light shoots. Also, mine has the NY...
EXACTLY, my point. That is what a BTLS protocol would call for....it has no place in the CARE UNDER FIRE phase. BTLS, ABTLS, PHTLS or ALS all have there place within the TACTICAL FEILD CARE phase and CASEVAC phase. The unfortunate thing about the internet is you cannot understand the inflection...
The above statement runs counter to the American and British experience. Let's not "reinvent the wheel in the shape of a maple leaf". Tactical Combat Casualty Care is not BTLS but with bullets flying around. I'd like to see you strap an intubated patient to a backboard breathing for him as the...
We have to be honest with ourselves when comparing experience. British and American militaries have a lot (re:tons of) combat experience. Canada has good troops, an excellent training system but only a few have any combat experience. The majority of those are not involved in training...
Got it from a good buddy that a Canadian was just wounded by and ND last week. Investigation ongoing as far as I understand......
What would the cost of that fine be????
