More tactic, SOP’s, TTP’s and Maneuvers. Also, real life situations of what teams did right and what teams did wrong to help with thinking through these issues

Operations in dense jungle, mainly upon narrow trails forcing patrol in file due to terrain was common in Vietnam. We expected ambush at all times. Moving out into open fields, or locations to disperse positions created a whole different set of rules. As you said, there are so many variables to access. On a side note, I like the fact that you have PBR as the good guys. Has been my beer of choice since I was first in country in 1969.🍻 55 years later, I still drink it today.😏

Good morning GP. To continue with my previous post. Yes we had a Ranger file but we also had a squad and a platoon file. The squad file had a greater distance between troops but another difference was the point man or scout as we called them was farther out ahead of the squad file and the next man was called the slack man. The squad leader or team would control the distance with the command take up the slack. This helped to prevent the effect of mowing down the file because if the terrain was open there was a greater distance between the point man and the slack man to allow a greater reaction time. Now beer can tactics this formation. Keep up the outstanding classes. All the way!

Good shit. Love the cans I remember in 2000 training for pat sight deployment we would go over shit in the barracks with a patriot launcher toy set from the px.

Wait why? Is it to just get cover? I have no military experience sorry if it’s a stupid question.

@teampyle9835 20 күн бұрын

@speartongamer6080 what's stupid is not asking questions at all. And yes, if you take contact via indirect fire, the first thing you do is drop to the floor to avoid the blast. It's also sometimes a wise move if you take direct fire from an un known location so you can figure out a maneuver plan before running straight into the enemy. Sometimes, dudes land in cactus when they drop to the floor without thinking. Prone reduces your signature and makes you harder to hit and, in some cases, impossible to hit.

Honestly the biggest challenge with learning this stuff is exactly what you said - 1000 different ways to do everything. Especially when on youtube you hear a million different tactics and strategies for 1000s of scenarios. How do you get everyone on your team on the same page? How do you even write your SOPs, or even decide what should be SOP and what shouldn’t? I feel like if i was in the shit with some strong leadership showing me the ropes i’d get it like that but for now, we only got our basic fundamental team tactics.

8:30 If im in a group with any kind of numbers and we get pop shots from what seems like one guy, i think my own skeptical nature would lead me to assume that I'm being drawn into an ambush Penny for everyones' thoughts.

Typically, yes. A lone guy taking potshots is a huge red flag, especially when he quite visibly escapes over a ridge, or runs into a village.

If the teamleader went down, we didn't have to figure out who should step up, every man knew the order of rank before we went out, down to the last man, this was standard doctrine in the Danish army.. I thought that was NATO standard, but maybe not..

Hey Grunt Proof, Great discussion and I love you videos. I asked the question about a file and squad online and I appreciate your response but that's not exactly what I meant. First I'm an old,old, retired fuck from the Vietnam Era so I'm going explain in a little more detail which you may find interesting. Unfortunately I'm little to busy today to give the detail it deserves but I will explain tomorrow.
