I seem to remember a gunner's quadrant being called a sensitive item. I don't think it's actually a sensitive item but people like called it as such because they are stupid. I have never seen it used nor have met anyone who even knows how to use it, and only glanced at it in passing because being army junk I assume it doesn't work as it should.

Hey guys it's only been like 17 months since it went missing but the pair of red-tagged, broken, basic NVGs that went missing might finally have their investigation closed out. lmao the company that lost them had to police call the golf course like five times.

All we have is regular line weapons, sights, those fancy new nods with the thermal overlay, radios and a SKL. I personally have 0 fucks left to give and can't wait to hit the bars.

We had some Vietnam era early warning systems where you buried random probes in the dirt and it picked up vibrations from the breeze and blinked a tired old amber light next to a faded metal plate engraved "tank battalion" or whatever. That was somehow sensitive and had to be locked up in the arms room and inventoried every month. I also remember battalion going nuts and making us go back out to try to find a spent AT4 tube that got discarded after firing. That felt pretty silly to go back to where you got ambushed in order to find a piece of plastic.

One of my old units had 99 bayonets in the arms room. No clue why. But MTOE said we needed them. What a support unit would do with them is beyond me...

well the M9 has more utility as a regular knife at least. M7s though would be pretty useless imo though

a well trained infantryman can disable a tank with a bayonet

not caring here posted:I seem to remember a gunner's quadrant being called a sensitive item. I don't think it's actually a sensitive item but people like called it as such because they are stupid. Not sensitive, but individually serial numbered and high value. It was always great digging through a box of like 75 of them looking for one that was missed on the inventory. I think they had something like a $2500 price tag for each of them.

So I've been visiting different reserve units looking for Air Support for my exercise next year. I feel like I'm a liquor store and trying to hand out shots of patron and everyone is dry. Like seriously, please give me some people so I can put them in a chinook and fly then around on my dime and they can do some work for me.

The IN and other non 19Ds in my squadron wear their stetsons way more than most of the cav guys do. Probably the best thing about the stetson though is not having to wear the beret. gently caress berets, unless its green.

Why would you be wearing a beret on a daily basis unless you're in some kind of airborne or special operations unit.

When we had an infantry battalion assigned to our brigade (gently caress knows what reason), they went full retard trying to be special snowflakes among the rest of us armor mongs. Berets were talked about but the brigade commander said gently caress no.

I'm super glad that after a few brigades decided that berets were just a recipe for sunburns and dumb snowflake pictures, the CG basically banned them from ceremonies. Also, RIP former CG. He was a good guy with young kids

Zeris posted:When were you there, 1890? 2003. There was no electricity in Baghdad which meant no a/c, no fridge, nothing cool at all. There were some Ice factories in the city that got big generators to allow them to make mountains of giant rectangular ice blocks that they delivered all over the city. At the time there was a strictly enforced curfew at sundown (like, we kill you if you're out driving around), but we made a deal with the ice company. They get to run their ice deliveries at night, and in return, my units got a giant blocks of ice whenever they wanted it. You broke up the big block into little chunks that you could put in your cooler with your drinks. You really could get anything back then for an ice cold fanta.

Except we had some rear end in a top hat who went home crying, so we used his lovely BudK special Sykes Fairbairn Commando Dagger. That human being spent like 250 on a set of BLACKHAWK! ALICE style web gear, and then decided to go to war with the cheapest knife he could find.
